It depends on the food... the tax system is all over the place here and not consistent. Some places, I buy a tea from McD, I only get charged PST. Other branches I get billed all 13%... bakeries.... some charge me 13% for a bao.... but others don't charge me tax at all... But most canned/bottled stuff is full fat 13%. Veggies and meat is random as well.
