Exempts the retail sale of food from state sales and use tax, subject to a three-year sunset provision

Summary

The bill would stop Missouri’s state sales and use tax on retail food sales—except for local taxes—starting Jan. 1, 2027. It defines “food” as items eligible for SNAP benefits and vending‑machine sales, but excludes meals sold by restaurants or other establishments where prepared food makes up most of their revenue. The exemption would automatically end after three years unless the legislature renews it.
