Cash is legal tender for debts. The debt part is the key. In a supermarket you exchange money for goods. The sale either happens or it doesn't. At no point is there a debt. On the other hand if you go to a restaurant, you eat and are presented with the bill, they will have a hard time not taking your cash because you've already consumed the product.
