Default Because one is a hand made, prepared food

The reason is simple. The aformentioned sandwich is taxed due to the fact that is was handmade and then sold as a prepared meal (I'm going to use my $120,000 worth of college education and suppose it was meant to be lunch.) The Whoopie Pie, most likely sold as a multi-pack, was constructed by machine and not intended to be a meal (Most likely the "hold me over until dinner" part of your day.) So, in review the sandwich is a culmination of ingredients hand picked and assembled to create a meal and the whoopie pie is not a hand prepared meal which solves the mystery.
