How do you tell the two apart?

 
One tastes better than the other. Chocolate cake doesn't last very long in the yard either.

I'd consider consulting at least two of the other four senses before relying on taste... then a dog that can fool sight and smell could probably be a finalist on America's Got Talent.

That's an astute observation. I'm from the old school where we just put things in our mouths and hope for the best. Sometimes I listen for chocolate cake, but that doesn't seem to work as well it used to, especially since most things I eat from the yard don't taste like chocolate cake.

Perhaps you should put some thought into making chocolate cake that doesn't sound like dog poop. 

However, there is an easier solution that will solve your problem, and that is white dog poop.(Okay, you may have to avoid white chocolate cake, but that's no hardship, white chocolate is pretty disgusting at best). You don't see white dog poop any more but 30 to 40 years ago it was quite common. So if you can remember seeing white dog poop on the sidewalk then that's a good indication that you are old. When I was at school in the 60s it was commonly accepted that white dog poop was produced by poodles, but poodles still exist yet white dog poop is a thing of the past. The colour of poop is determined by what ever has been eaten by the pooch and white dog poop is an indication of a high calcium diet, derived from eating bones. Now this isn't entirely fool proof (because there are some pretty resourceful fools out there), the poop as it exits the rear of the dawg is not white, it's standard dog poop colour and thus could st6ill be confused with chocolate cake, the whiteness is a result of the poop aging in the sun and rain as the soluble components of the poop leach out leaving the calcium of the undigested bone behind. So you have to wait a few days before not eating it.

Thank you. That's a particularly interesting solution. I just need to reschedule my yard grazing and make sure my chocolate cake doesn't eat bones. I'm familiar with white dog poop and remember a yard full of it back in the 1970s when I was smaller than I am now. I wouldn't necessarily say it's a thing of the past, though it is considerably rare these days. I see evidence in my own poop in the yard after I've had a meal of bones a few days before.
 
One thing white dog poop was notorious for was that it was regularly mistaken for graffiti, something my father always punished us for when we left scrapings off our shoes all over the side of the house. We eventually learned and just left it on our shoes when we came into the house. Dad thought we were just gassy, Mom never noticed.

looks a lot more like NOW than 2012, especially with what's going on.

They add a few more degrees of analysis.  Here's my results:
Left: 0.17, Authoritarian: 1.6 (0 is center)
Foreign Policy: -1.89
