minus-squareManOMorphos@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·5 天前In my state, prepared foods are generally taxed while produce, canned goods, dairy, and many others are not. The system is confusing enough that hardly anyone knows what’s taxable or not, so they rely on the store systems to do it for them.

minus-squareEntertainmeonly@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·6 天前Huh, i am not that observant i guess. Just pulled out a receipt and you’re right. No tax on the groceries.
