Mississippians continue to battle the highest grocery tax (7%) in America.
A report from HelpAdvisor shows just how much U.S. households spend weekly.
According to the report, Mississippi pay the third-most in the U.S. for groceries, spending a little more than $290 every week. The national average is $270.21. The only other states paying more are California ($297.72) and Nevada ($294.76).
After multiple failed bills during the most recent session of the Mississippi Legislature, Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann is planning to have another proposition introduced and passed to reduce the burden on residents at the grocery store.
