BUSINESS ACTIVITIES OF THE COMPANY (CONTINUED)
----------------------------------
The Company accounts for warrants issued to purchase common shares
in connection with services rendered to the Company using the fair value
method prescribed in SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation".
Stock-based compensation cost charged to operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 was $222,131.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN PREPARING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
MERCHANDISE INVENTORY
---------------------
Merchandise inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value
on a first-in, first-out basis.
PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
-------------------
Plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated
depreciation. The cost of major improvements and betterments to existing
plant and equipment are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are
charged to expense when incurred. Upon retirement or other disposal of plant
and equipment, the profit realized or loss sustained on such transaction is
reflected in income. Depreciation is computed on the cost of plant and
equipment on the straight-line method, based upon the estimated useful lives
of the assets.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
------------------
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", basic earnings
per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the number of
weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Earnings per
share, assuming dilution, is computed by dividing net income or loss by the
number of weighted-average common shares and common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period.

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND THE COMPANY'S RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH
THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN
THIS REPORT.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
The Company did not engage in any substantive business activity from
approximately April 6, 1996 to May 28, 1998. On May 28, 1998, the Company
acquired Famous Fixins, Inc., a privately-held New York corporation formed on
November 29, 1995 ("FFNY") in a transaction viewed as a reverse acquisition.
FFNY was a promoter and marketer of celebrity endorsed food products, which
commenced business activities in 1995 and began sales operations in March
25, 1997. Pursuant to the reorganization, certain FFNY shareholders became
the controlling shareholders of the Company, all of the officers and
directors of the Company resigned and elected the nominees of the FFNY
shareholders in their places, and FFNY became a majority-owned subsidiary of
the Company. The following discussion describes the historical operations of
FFNY, giving effect to its reorganization with the Company in May 1998.
The Company experienced losses in 1997 and 1998, its first two years of
operations, primarily due to start-up costs, slowly developed marketing and
distribution operations and the lack of sufficient licenses from celebrities
for the use of their names and reputations in promoting food products.
Further, the Company was hampered by an insufficient amount of credit and
financing. The Company's sales were lower in 1998 than in 1997. The Company
moved its emphasis to celebrity athletes in 1999, and the Company has been able
to obtain a number of valuable licenses pursuant to which it has produced
dramatic growth in its revenues, and it has improved its ability to obtain
credit and financing.
12
<PAGE>
The Company's initial year of operations, ended December 31, 1997,
resulted in limited sales of its initial line of celebrity endorsed food
products, yielding a loss that year of $211,682 on revenues of $358,791, for
the reasons discussed above as to the start-up costs, lack of sufficient
capital, and limited line of products.
The Company's operating revenues for the year ended December 31,
1998 were $276,006, a decrease of 23.1% as compared to 1997. This decrease
primarily resulted from the lack of sufficient capital to market the
Company's products. Operating expenses increased by 52.6% over the
same period, primarily due to increased administrative and selling expenses.
The following table sets forth, for the period indicated, the
relationship between total sales and certain expenses and earnings items:

</TABLE>
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 1999 increased
approximately 1,429% as compared to the same period in 1998. Sales for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 increased approximately 752% as compared
to the same period in 1998. This increase resulted from an increase in the
number of celebrity athletes who granted licenses to the Company in that
period, and the launch of two new cereal products in the six months ended
June 30, 1999 and an additional three new cereal products in the three
months ended September 30, 1999.
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 1999 were
$548,658, or approximately 56% of sales, as compared to $54,851, or
approximately 85% of sales, for the comparable period in 1998. Cost of goods
sold for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 were $1,237,475, or
approximately 57% of sales, as compared to $172,678, or approximately 68% of
sales, for the comparable period in 1998. Total cost of goods sold are
expected to increase as more products are sold; however, cost of goods sold are
expected to continue to decrease as a percentage of total sales as the
Company's sales volume grows.

<PAGE>
For the three months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the same
period in 1998, operating expenses increased to $393,767 from $231,673, which
represents a decrease to 40% of sales from 361% of sales. For the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998,
operating expenses increased to $1,049,470 from $623,908, which represents a
decrease to 48% of sales from 244% of sales. The increase in 1999 is due
mainly to an increase in the Company's product offerings from its initial
product, a line of salad dressings, to include five new cereal products and
the royalties thereon, an increase in advertising and promotional expenses,
and to a lesser extent, an increase in personnel from one full-time employee
to three full-time employees.
The Company operated profitably in the three months ended September 30,
1999, earning $39,248, or $.004 per share basic and $.003 per share diluted,
as compared to a net loss of $208,187, or $.031 per share basic and diluted,
for the corresponding three month period in 1998. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, the Company had a net loss of $109,420, or $.011 per
share basic and $.010 per share diluted, as compared to a net loss of
$512,305, or $.080 per share basic and diluted, for the corresponding three
month period in 1998. The revenues for the first nine months of 1999 do not
include sales of four new products endorsed by celebrity athletes, whose
products became available beginning October 1999. The Company anticipates
continued significant increases in revenues and profitability for the
reminder of 1999. This trend of increased revenues and increased
profitability is expected to continue now that the Company has already
launched nine new products for nine new celebrity athletes this year, and
expects to launch four to six more new products for four to six more new
celebrities through the balance of this year. While the addition of new
product lines may also create liquidity issues and demands on the Company's
limited resources, it is anticipated that the increased revenues generated
this year by the new products will have a favorable impact on income and
liquidity.
The Company's food sales business is not seasonal in nature, although
the Company may experience fluctuations in sales of athlete endorse products
in connection with the respective athlete's professional season. Inflation
is not deemed to be a factor in the Company's operations.
Financial Condition or Liquidity and Capital Resources.
To date, the Company has funded its operations through a line of
credit, bank borrowings, and borrowings from, and issuances of warrants and
sales of securities to, stockholders, and from operating revenues. The
Company's inability to obtain sufficient credit and capital financing has
limited operations and growth from inception.

<PAGE>
During 1998, the Company received capital of $492,637 in cash
and services (net of costs of $61,278) from securities offerings by issuing
778,711 shares of its common stock. In 1999, through September 30, 1999, the
Company has issued an additional 3,578,733 shares of common stock in exchange
for cash and services aggregating approximately $475,000 which as at September
30, 1999 (a) $300,000 was collected by the Company; (b) $54,000 is receivable
under a stock subscription agreement; and (c) $121,000 has been provided in
various services. The Company used substantially all of the net proceeds for
general operating expenses.
Pursuant to a business revolving credit agreement with The Chase
Manhattan Bank (Bank), the Bank agreed to make loans to the Company up to a
maximum credit line amount (currently $100,000). The Bank notifies the
Company as to the amount of the available credit line from time to time. The
Company may borrow from the Bank incremental principal amounts of at least
$2,500. Borrowings bear interest at the Bank's prime rate plus 1/2%.
Principal is payable in monthly installments equal to 1/36 of the outstanding
principal amount of the loan as of the date of the last loan made prior to
the date of such installment. Repayment of the Company's loan is guaranteed
by certain stockholders of the Company. The outstanding balance of the
long-term note payable to the Bank, net of current installments, at December
31, 1998 was $25,253 and at September 30, 1999 was $22,247.
The Company believes that its future growth is dependent on the degree
of success of current operations in generating revenues, and borrowings under
its current credit facility, and the ability to obtain additional credit
facilities, although there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to obtain any additional financing the Company may require. In October 1999,
the Company entered into agreements pursuant to which certain investors agreed
to purchase an aggregate of $550,000 principal amount of 5% convertible
debentures due October 19, 2002 and 139,152 warrants to purchase shares of
the Company's common stock. At the initial closing date, the Company received
an aggregate of $450,000, and is to receive the remaining $100,000 subject to
the effective date of a registration statement. The warrants are exercisable
between October 30, 1999 and October 30, 2004 at a purchase price of $.494 per
share (125% of the market price on the closing date). At the Company's option,
the convertible debentures may be exchanged into convertible preferred stock.
The Company believes that such sources of funds will be sufficient to fund its
operations for the next twelve months.
Year 2000 Compliance
As the year 2000 approaches, the Company recognizes the need to
ensure its operations will not be adversely impacted by Year 2000 software
failures. The Company primarily uses licensed software products in its
operations with a significant portion of processes and transactions
centralized in one particular software package. During 1999, management
upgraded its software so that the Company's accounting system is Year 2000
compliant. The cost of the upgrade was not material. Also during 1999,
attention will be focused on compliance attainment efforts of vendors and
others, including key system interfaces with customers and suppliers.
Although it is not possible to quantify the effects Year 2000 compliance
issues will have on customers and suppliers, the Company does not anticipate
related material adverse effects on its financial condition or results of
operations.

for the 1999 season is a weekend (two nights) trip for two to Mets spring
training in Port St. Lucie, Florida for which the Company will provide, at
its own expense, round-trip airfare, and SDE will provide hotel
accommodations, a car rental in Port St. Lucie, and two tickets to one spring
training game. The second place prize for 1999 is a Mets jersey autographed
by one player that appears on the 1999 cereal product. The third place prize
for 1999 is four tickets to one Mets regular season home game and the
opportunity to attend that game's batting practice on the field. The grand
prize for 2000 is an opportunity to appear in a non-official Mets team
photograph. The second place prize for 2000 is a "honorary bat boy or bat
girl" for one day (an opportunity to dress in a Mets uniform and to attend
batting practice on the field). The third place prize for 2000 is a National
league baseball signed by a player that appears on the 2000 cereal product.
The agreement shall be automatically renewed on an annual basis unless SDE
elects to terminate the agreement by providing written notice of such
termination on or before December 31, 2000, or on or before any anniversary
thereof, provided that SDE shall provide the same or comparable promotional
support and cooperation during each year during which the agreement remains
in effect.
