Sec. 14. (a) Except as provided in subsection (c), a food and beverage tax imposed under section 13 of this chapter applies to any transaction in which food or a beverage is furnished, prepared, or served:
(1) for consumption at a location, or on equipment, provided by a retail merchant;
(2) in the unit in which the tax is imposed; and
(3) by the retail merchant for consideration.
If both a county and another unit located in the county impose a tax under this chapter, the tax imposed by the county does not apply within the territory of the other unit imposing the tax.
(b) Transactions described in subsection (a)(1) include transactions in which food or a beverage is:
(1) served by a retail merchant off the merchant's premises;
(2) sold by a retail merchant who ordinarily bags, wraps, or packages the food or beverage for immediate consumption on or near the retail merchant's premises, including food or beverages sold on a "take out" or "to go" basis; or
(3) sold by a street vendor.
(c) A food and beverage tax imposed under this chapter does not apply to the furnishing, preparing, or serving of any food or beverage in a transaction that is exempt, or to the extent the transaction is exempt, from the state gross retail tax imposed under IC 6-2.5.
