A very long and very qualified list of people who think this is a bad idea.
Also, the infamous Jaffa cake lawsuit.
Just one example of working out edge cases costing a fortune.

That’s a big step back from “no issues at all”, isn’t it?
Did they have court cases and if so did the court cases somehow harm the economy or the population in some way? I find it odd that you would oppose any law because somebody might file a court case. That seems batshit crazy to me. Virtually every law is eventually tested in the courts.
What a bizarre statement.
I stand by my statement. To the best of my knowledge this exists in many countries without problems.
Of course there have been issues in some countries, but notice I did not say all countries did I?
Further, I see you completely ignored the article and instead chose to pick on semantics.
Which countries, then? Where has this been implemented where it hasn’t cost them an absolute fortune in legal fees and added admin costs?
Or are you just making shit up?
Canada.
Since you only provides a single example I only need to do the same. Or are you making shit up?
Look at that, cases over weird edge cases.
Another court case.
Oh look, another one.
Starting to think this will be an expensive pain in the ass.
None of those have anything to do with food exemptions. We have been specifically talking about zero-rating produce. No-one is arguing that we should start zero-rating other things, or that certain jurisdictions have complex tax code.
You, and others, are trying to argue that GST exempt produce will be frought with troubles, but the only example you have provided is that one court case in the UK.
