Yep, the 6% tax on food is still in place in The Netherlands.

Just a minor nitpick.
It's 19 percent (since januari this year) in the Netherlands. 21 percent in
Belgium and in Germany. As for the rest of the countries I'm not sure but
they
are all around 20 percent. We also used to have a lower tax rate for some
goods
(mostly foodstuff) that was around 6 percent but I'm not sure if we still
have
that one.
