I think this is an excellent policy, and a long time coming. This is done overseas with good effect. While I don’t think it’s a magic bullet, it is definitely a step in the right direction.

    Frozen vegi mix is exempt as simply freezing does not constitute processing

    What about ones that contain corn? That has to be mechanically stripped from the cob. Or what about green beans? They need to be trimmed to size.

    Does that not count as processing?

        How could a reasonable person not consider that processed? In the corn example, it’s completely different from it’s original form.

          It doesn’t matter what you or I consider processed, only how it is defined by the legislation. If it defines it as unprocessed, then it is for the purposes of being zero-rated.
