You realize that in most of the U.S. you pay sales taxes on restaurant food and tip the waiter, right?

In some states groceries are exempt from sales tax, but restaurant food is not exempted by any state (except in the trivial sense in states that don't have a sales tax at all).

New Hampshire even has a special sales tax just for restaurant food (despite not having a general sales tax).
