62. As an overweight person - I even think some foods should be taxed
I live in a state with no sales tax (Delaware) but personally think adding a small sales tax to fast food & junk food that have no nutritional value might help people eat healthier. Even putting just 1-2% on the items would bring a large amount of resources into the state which could be used to help pay for healthcare and weight loss programs
