Dumb question from an American for you.
You guys in the UK pay taxes on fruits and veggies?
I'm asking because we in the US do not pay sales taxes on fruits and veggies, at least we don't in Texas and I thought that was country-wide.
I can't imagine the point of taxing fresh food...so if someone explains I'd be grateful!

The only foods currently taxed in the UK are heated takeaway foods, MacDonalds, Fish and Chips etc and food consumed in a restaurant. Food bought from a shop isn't taxed.
