Ill pay that tax for some real NY bagels. I dont think the people up there realize how good they have it concerning food.
The tax is stupid though... -
I don't think places should taxing food, prepared or not.

Ehh taxing on prepped food is common and right IMO, but i think the stink comes in the fact the difference is whether the bagel is sliced or not.
In Tyler, TX, bagels sliced or unsliced are taxed... -

I think taxation in general in this country is completely out of hand...........
<end of editorial comments> -
local governments can tax prepared food here. One reason I drive 2 miles down the road to avoid the 4% meal tax. I mean, the town is already gouging us on our water/sewer bill....charging 2x the rate of town residents.

Back home If you buy one bagel, donut, muffin, you are taxed. Buy a half dozen, no tax.

Given time the politicos will be taxing the very air we breath as if it is theirs to give....

The same place I buy my smoked meats also do their own smoked salmon. It is the best.
Around Thanksgiving they will always have a special run of smoked whole turkeys. They always sell out. -

Errr.... "take out". -
Briss?
Capers?
Wiki time...:confused5: -
Briss- really spelled Bris - Brit milah (Hebrew: בְּרִית מִילָה [b'rīt mī'lā], Ashkenazi pronunciation, bris milôh, "covenant of circumcision"; Yiddish pronunciation, bris) is a Jewish religious circumcision ceremony performed on 8-day old male infants by a mohel. The brit milah is followed by a celebratory meal (seudat mitzvah).

Capers - The salted and pickled caper bud (also called caper and gabbar for Turkish Cypriots) is often used as a seasoning or garnish. Capers are a common ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine, especially Cypriot, Italian and Maltese. The mature fruit of the caper shrub is also prepared similarly, and marketed as caper berries.
The buds, when ready to pick, are a dark olive green and about the size of a fresh kernel of corn. They are picked, then pickled in salt, or a salt and vinegar solution, or drained. Intense flavor is developed, as mustard oil (glucocapparin) is released from each caper bud. This enzymatic reaction also leads to the formation of rutin often seen as crystallized white spots on the surfaces of individual caper buds.
Capers are a distinctive ingredient in Italian cuisine, especially in Sicilian and southern Italian cooking. They are commonly used in salads, pasta salads, pizzas, meat dishes and pasta sauces. Examples of uses in Italian cuisine are chicken piccata and salsa puttanesca.
Capers are also known for being one of the ingredients of tartar sauce. They are also often served with cold smoked salmon or cured salmon dishes (especially lox and cream cheese). Capers are also sometimes substituted for olives to garnish a martini. -
