Now Serving Sales TaxThe taxability of prepared food purchased from a supermarket deli varies based on such factors as whether it is made by the seller or just sliced or repackaged; whether it is sold hot; whether it is sold by weight or volume (a pound of something) or by the unit (like a whole turkey); and whether it is separate meal components versus multiple items sold for a single price. For example, mashed potatoes and meatloaf priced separately or sold as a combo.
