Oh man, my husband would have gone full blown ballistic if this would have happend to me. Here's a trick I do when I go out. I always say "Diet coke please. And I'm diabetic so it has to be diet please." I always say it with a smile and very sweetly. It's my way of giving the wait staff a heads up and I always hope it makes them a little more carefull. Now if I'm at a restaurant and communication is a problem I stick with water or non sweet tea. It makes things easier that way.
