Zero for grocery-type food, with some exceptions. "Food products for human consumption" (meat, produce, dairy, etc., that you'd expect to use to prepare meals) are exempted from the standard 6.35% Connecticut state sales tax, except for certain types of foods like Alcoholic Beverages, candy, confectionery products, carbonated water and other Carbonated Beverages, and prepared meals (restaurant, take-out, and catered food), etc.-those are taxed at the same state sales tax rate as other products.

When exactly food becomes a meal is sometimes weird (for example, in many places, a pre-made sandwich at in a supermarket is food, but the exact same one made custom is a meal. One roll is a meal, but 6 or more is food, etc.) Clearly, something like fast food (or a restaurant dinner) is a meal and subject to the tax.
