I for some reason, had a whole bunch of urine test strips (for glucose, not ketones) lying around at one point. These were great for testing coke! Use the straw to drop a drop on the strip, diet stays green, regular turns dark brown immediately.

I usually only order drinks at places that it comes in a can or a bottle now, so it's a non-issue. I get McDonald's once every 6 months or so, and Micky D's screws my numbers up so much I can't tell if it's a diet or regular coke anyway... I should try the hand drying trick! That's a great idea.

If I'm at a sit down place it's either coffee or beer, and both of those are idiot proof. (as I don't take my coffee with any sweetener)
