Why did my expense entry get split ? How do I fix this?

I strongly suspect it is because I have an accout linked with each item and a sales tax code of "non taxable" - while that should not trigger such behavior as a split, that is the only two-part thing associated with these items. Anyway I do appreciate all the ideas but for now after tryin gso many t hings it isn't worth the time to debug so i'm going to live with it Thank you again for all the attempts.

Seeing "-split-" is normal when you have sales tax as your screenshot indicates.  Even though you charged $0 in sales tax, it still shows as a $0 line item on your Transaction Journal for that sales receipt.  To verify, run a Transaction Journal report on that sales receipt and you should see three line items: the deposit, the income, and the $0 sales tax.
