Drink Detective Discovers Spiked Drinks

Filed under: etc.

Date-rape drugs exist, and people use them. So if you like to err on the side of caution, or if you're a date-rapist vigilante, the Drink Detective is for you. It is a disposable matchbook sized kit that can detect the three major types of date rape drugs: GHB, ketamine and flunitrazepam. It's an interesting concept, the only problem we find with it is that it runs for about $6.50 per drink testing kit. While it doesn't really seem feasible for people to actually use this in an alcohol-filled social setting, it's a good start to developing a more re-usable and affordable solution.
