        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.

          Many US states do tax unprepared food… Some at a different rate than other goods, but not all.

          Huh, i am not that observant i guess. Just pulled out a receipt and you’re right. No tax on the groceries.
