I can see taxing finished goods (hamburger helper) but not raw goods (apples, carrots). Is this the case in some of these states?

This is more or less how it works in Texas. Or at least the last time I paid attention to it I’d did. Potatoes are not taxed but chips are.

Yeah, kind of. I live in Minnesota and here raw ingredients, and essential food items are untaxed. Prepared foods, candy, soda and anything "non-essential" are taxed normally.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
