It depends entirely on the state (and sometimes on the local taxing bodies in the state). You cannot make any general statements on a national basis.

For example, you would not pay sales tax on candy in Oregon. California a few years ago passed a tax on "junk food" that tried to tax candy, but it became almost impossible to enforce (miniature marshmallows were classified as a tax-free food and regular marshmallows were classified as a taxable junk food) and was soon repealed.
