incorrect!
From wikipedia
"Under UK law, no Value Added Tax (VAT) is charged on plain biscuits and cakes — they are "zero rated"

You pay VAT if you sit in.
You don't pay VAT if you take away.

Pretty much any luxury has VAT on; Mcdonalds is a luxury not a necessity, therefore VAT payable

Vat is chargeable on EVERYTHING. Certain items are rated at 17.5%, some at 5% and some at 0%.

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
