I bought a meal at Mcdonalds and I noticed that they taxed me for a eating in ($.35)...are you forserious? So the next time I bought a meal, I asked for it "to go" so I wouldn't have to pay the tax and they taxed me for that too...what the hell?! So either way Im getting taxed "/ uggghs...I hate tax ! Do you get taxed for eating in and taking out at restaurants you go to??

Doesn't restaurant food always get taxed? Unlike groceries, restaurant food is a "luxury item".

I want to say that the tax on fast foods is a rather new thing. ITs believe to help reduce obesity.

All food, including groceries are taxed here (in Tennessee). We don't have state taxes, so I'm guessing that's why. It really irritates me though, because as a single with a dependent, I always get quite a bit in tax returns. It feels/seems like I'm still paying state taxes without a chance for a return.

I always thought fast-food places taxed regardless of whether not you ate there. _unsure.gif
