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.

Only place it makes sense is Hawaii because it's all shipped in and there's not enough land to supply local stuff to everybody.

What's the relationship between sales tax and shipping?

Only if the shipping is subsidized by taxes, so they get somehow recovered by the tax

Shipping is paid by the grocery store.

Sales tax are livied by the state.
