Item 6. Description of Business

                                    BUSINESS

     The Company is a development stage company. The Company was incorporated in
Nevada on April 14, 1998 with  authorized  capital of ten  million  (10,000,000)
shares of common  stock,  par value  $0.001 per  share.  On July 23,  1998,  the
Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to increase its authorized capital
to fifty  million  (50,000,000)  shares of common  stock,  par value  $0.001 per
share.

     On August  10,  1998,  the  Company  commenced  an  offering,  pursuant  to
Regulation  D of the  Securities  Act of 1933 (the  "Act"),  Rule 504,  of up to
1,200,000  shares  of its  common  stock  at a price of $0.10  per  share.  This
offering was conducted in order to raise money for working capital and inventory
and was broken down as follows: $90,000 for working capital, $2,000 for printing
and  engraving  costs,  $12,000  for  consulting  fees,  $12,000  for  legal and
accounting  fees and $30,000 for  offering-related  costs. On February 18, 1999,
this offering was completed with all shares being sold and issued for a total of
$120,000,  less  offering  costs of $30,000  being  received by the  Company.  A
closing Form D was filed as of February 25, 1999.

     The going concern  opinion of the independent  accountant,  as disclosed in
the Company's Independent Auditors Report attached to part F/S, is as follows:

          As of December  31, 1998,  the Company has net losses since  inception
          and negative equity which raises  substantial  doubt about its ability
          to continue as a going concern.

          The Company is in the process of raising  additional  working  capital
          through a public  offering of its common  stock,  which is expected to
          provide liquidity until operations become  profitable.  Management has
          subsequent  to year  end was  able  to get  its  internet  site up and
          running.   This  is  expected  to  provide   additional  sales.  Also,
          management  has stepped up its efforts to increase its sales to hotels
          and other businesses.

          The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
          successful  public  offering  and  ultimately   achieving   profitable
          operations.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful
          in its  efforts to raise  additional  proceeds  or achieve  profitable
          operations.  The financial  statements do not include any  adjustments
          that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

     The consumer may access the Company's menu of products over the Internet at
the Company's Web site. To access the Company's  products,  a user simply visits
the Company's Web site at http:/www.internetfood.com, registers using his or her
name and e-mail address,  then browses through the Company's proprietary product
menu.  Once on-line,  the user may select any desired product from the Company's
products menu.

     Substantially  all of the products  offered by the Company are available to
Web customers from other sources.  The Company's wines and cheeses, for example,
are available online,  including gourmet specialty stores.  The advantage of the
Company's  products menus is that it allows the consumer to select precisely the
type and  quantity of gourmet  food  products he or she wishes to buy,  order it
directly from the Internet to a home or office and, thereby,  shop on the Web at
any  convenient  time.  For example,  a consumer can order  products at any time
without  leaving his or her home.  Consumers can visit the Company's Web site as
often as they like and order products which may be supported by the  sponsorship
of the Company's advertisers.

Industry Background

     Growth of the  Internet.  The Internet has grown  rapidly in recent  years,
spurred by developments  such as easy-to-use Web browsers,  the  availability of
multimedia  personal  computers  ("PCs"),  the  adoption of more robust  network
architectures,  and the emergence of quality  Web-based  content and  commercial
applications.  The broad acceptance of the Internet Protocol ("IP") standard has
also led to the  emergence of intranets and the  development  of a wide range of
non-PC devices that allow consumers to access the Internet and intranets. E-Land
estimates  that  the  number  of Web  consumers  worldwide  will  increase  from
approximately 36 million at the end of 1997 to approximately  142 million by the
end of 2002.  This  represents an average annual growth rate of 79 percent.  The
following graph illustrates historic and projected use of the Internet:

     Much of the Internet's  rapid evolution  towards becoming a mass medium can
be attributed to the accelerated  pace of  technological  innovation,  which has
expanded  the Web's  capabilities  and  qualitatively  improved  users'  on-line
experiences.  Most  notably,  the  Internet  has evolved  from a mass of static,
text-oriented  Web pages  and  e-mail  services  to a much  richer  environment,
capable of delivering graphical, interactive multimedia content.

     Gourmet Specialty Food Industry. The gourmet and specialty food industry is
one of the fastest growing  businesses of America.  The National  Association of
Specialty Foods Trade, Inc. (NASFT) reports that sales have exploded in the last
six years,  from $10 billion in 1990 to over $33.7 billion in 1998. Pak facts, a
New York resource firm,  forecasts  this trend will continue,  with retail sales
expected to top $47 billion dollars by the year 2000 (1998 Gourmet Food Magazine
Article).

     Through  the  economic  down  drafts  of the 80s and 90s,  the  demand  for
specialty  foods  arched  upwards  with  the  American   consumer  finding  more
gratification.  The Company intends to capitalize on this rapid growth by online
sales and offering catalog items and gift-giving products to hotels, businesses,
and individuals.

The Internet as a New Medium for Advertising.

     The rapidly increasing number of Web consumers and the ubiquitous access to
the Internet,  both in the United States and  internationally,  have resulted in
the emergence of the Web as a new mass medium for  advertising.  An  independent
study  conducted by e-land  estimates  that the number of Web consumers  doubled
during  1996 to 19 million.  A high rate of growth is expected to continue  over
the next few years with over 140 million consumers anticipated by the year 2002,
including 64 million consumers in the United States alone.

     The  proliferation of workstations  and personal  computers served by local
networks  has also  resulted in the rapid  increase  in the number of  potential
recipients  of  electronically   distributed   information.   Forester  Research
estimates that  electronic  delivery of information to corporate  desktops alone
will  generate  approximately  $800  million in revenues  by the year 2001.  The
Global Internet Project estimates that the amount of information on the Internet
is doubling each year and that the number of pages  currently on the Internet is
approximately 11 million.

     The  Web  is  an  attractive   medium  for   advertising   because  of  its
interactivity,  flexibility,  targetability, and measurability.  Advertisers can
reach audiences and target  advertisements to consumers with similar demographic
characteristics,  specific regional populations, and affinity groups of selected
individuals.  The interactive nature of the Web enables advertisers to determine
customer preferences,  using these to initiate ongoing commercial  relationships
with potential customers. Advertisers can easily change their impression levels,
and demographic  information concerning consumers can be tracked and reported to
advertisers.  According to e-land,  Web advertising in the United States in 1996
was  approximately  $175  million and is expected to be as high as $8 billion by
the year 2002.

     The  Company  has  attempted  to  design  its Web site to offer a large and
comprehensive  selection  of  Monterey  specialty  food and wine  products.  The
Company is actively  engaged in  negotiations  with numerous other  providers of
Monterey  specialty  food  and  wine  products  and  believes  that it has  many
opportunities  to quickly  expand its products  menu  following  its election to
become a fully-reporting public company.

     Access to the products  available on the Company's Web site is available to
the consumer free of charge. The Company believes, however, that the delivery of
certain,   select   products   over  the   Internet   for  a  fee,  as  well  as
advertising-free  products  content,  represent a  significantly  underexploited
market segment.  The Company  intends to offer Monterey  specialty food and wine
products content and merchandise through electronic commerce  ("e-commerce") and
revenue sharing  arrangements  with existing and future Monterey  specialty food
and wine products manufacturers.

     Initially,  however,  the Company has  pursued a strategy of  maturing,  or
"beta  testing",  its Web site by offering  all access to its  products  free of
charge,  partially as a means of encouraging a high level of usage.  The Company
believes  that  active  usage  of the  Web  site  has  meaningfully  accelerated
development by identifying problem areas and promoting the testing  refinements.
Based on marketing and technical evaluation, the Company is currently initiating
a  commercial  strategy  that  contains  the  following  elements:  advertising,
electronic  commerce,  category  product  scanner fees  (cheeses,  for example),
sales, and licensing.

     Eventually,  the  Company  expects to derive a  significant  portion of its
revenue  from  advertising  on it Web site.  It  intends  to use two  methods of
advertising:  "banner"  advertisements  and product  sponsorships.  Sponsorships
enable the Company to charge for focused advertising related to specific product
types,   including  cheeses,  wines  and  salsas.  Banner  advertisements  allow
interested  consumers to link directly to the  advertisers'  own Web sites.  The
Company intends to target  traditional  producers of Monterey regional foods and
wines as advertisers on its Web site.

     The Company has entered  into  short-term  advertising  contracts  on a per
impression  basis or for a fixed-fee  based on a minimum number of  impressions.
Advertisements  currently  cost  $2.00 per  30-second  advertisement,  while the
Company's  banner  advertising  rates  generally  range  from $20 to $35 per one
thousand impressions.

     The Company's products are divided by type into specialty  categories.  The
Web site  presently  organizes the content into six  categories.  The categories
include Mustards,  Clam Chowders,  Cheeses, Jack Cheeses,  Salsas and Wines. The
Company  currently  intends to expand the number of categories  during the third
quarter of 1999.  For each of the  categories  on the  company's  Web site,  the
Company offers a premier  product  sponsorship to a Monterey  specialty food and
wine products provider who desires to be prominently  displayed on the Web site.
Category sponsorships are currently priced at $20 per one thousand impressions.

     To enable  advertisers to verify the number of  advertisement  playbacks or
visual   impressions   made  by   their   advertisements   and   monitor   their
advertisement's effectiveness, the Company provides its advertisers with reports
showing data on impressions,  "click throughs" and categories,  and then selects
advertisements   specifically  targeted  to  a  particular  consumer's  personal
profile.  For example,  a customer  considering the purchase of a Monterey "Jack
Cheese"  may  request  information  about  available  cheese  products  from the
Company's Jack Cheese  category.  The Company's  software,  interfacing with the
Company's proprietary advertising server software,  recognizes that the consumer
is selecting the Jack Cheese  category,  checks the personal profile of the user
(i.e.: age and zip code), and delivers a topic-appropriate  advertisement to the
target consumer. This process benefits both the advertiser and the consumer. The
customer saves time and effort by receiving  relevant messages from various Jack
Cheese  manufacturers  or  distributors  prior to making a  purchase,  while the
advertiser  reaches  a  prospective  buyer at or near the time the  consumer  is
making a purchase decision.

     The Company intends to maximize its resources by contracting  third parties
for order fulfillment of physical merchandise; however, the Company will collect
a commission-based  fee for all product sales. With most Monterey specialty food
and wine products,  the Company will generally obtain a fully paid-up license or
enter into a  revenue-sharing  agreement  with Monterey  specialty food and wine
product manufacturers or distributors.

Source Transaction Electronic Commerce

     The Company has  implemented  electronic  merchandising  ("e-commerce")  to
address the purchasing interests of the ever-increasing  number of consumers who
are accustomed to buying products over the Internet.  The Company has negotiated
a link to an established provider of secure financial communications software so
that it can offer consumer's the ability to purchase and own products  available
on the Company's Web site.  Customers pay by credit card for  merchandise  or by
downloading  at the time of  ordering  directly  over  the  Internet  using  the
Company's financial communications software.

Distribution Partnerships

     The Company intends to develop  partnerships with strategic  Internet sites
to increase  the traffic to its Web site  categories.  The Company is capable of
delivering  consumers  to  other  companies'  Web  sites  in  order  to  develop
additional streams of revenue.  Incremental  increases in traffic generated from
partnership  sites will increase the frequency of  advertisement  impressions on
the company's Web site. The Company believes it can significantly increase total
advertising revenue from the increased traffic generated by partnered sites.

     Monterey Specialty Food and Wine Products Categories. The Company has built
relationships  with a wide variety of manufacturers and distributors of Monterey
County  specialty  food  and  wine  products,  as  well as  Northern  California
producers, in an effort to appeal to the broadest possible market. Specifically,
the Company's current products include a private label Monterey Jack Cheese that
is hand-rolled.  The Company currently has an eight-flavor selection of original
Monterey Jack, Garlic Monterey Jack, Hot Pepper, Habanero, Pesto, Vidalia Onion,
Cheddar and Chile Cheddar Cheeses. Other food specialty items (of which some are
private  labels)  include  marinated  artichoke  hearts,  cheese  spreads,  clam
chowders,  crackers, garlic juice sprays, garlic mustards, garlic stuffed olives
and jalepenos,  hot sauces, kiwi mustards,  marinated  mushrooms,  pasta sauces,
pickled garlics, pistachios,  salamis, salsas, sardines, sour dough bread bowls,
spices and wine jellies. Some of the wine selections include Smith & Hook, Hahn,
Jekel,  Joullian,   Bernardus,   Chateau  Julian,  Cloninger  Cellars,  De  Rose
Vineyards, Kendall-Jackson, Morgan, Paraiso Springs and Robert Mondavi wines.

     Internetfood.com's  Existing  Library.  Since  launching its Web site,  the
Company has  collected a library of over 100  Monterey  specialty  food and wine
products. It intends to rapidly increase the size of its Monterey specialty food
and wine products menu upon  effectiveness  of this Form 10SB.  Current Monterey
specialty food and wine products  manufacturers or distributors  include,  among
others,  Sonoma Cheese,  Blossom Valley, and Foods,  Garlic Valley Farms, Carmel
Candies, Pezzini Gourmet Foods, Messetta, Inc., Musso's, T & S Farms.

Marketing and Sales

     The Company attracts  consumers to its Web site primarily through Web-based
promotions.  These can take the form of either  advertisements on other targeted
Web sites or e-mail directed at selected Internet consumers.  This use of e-mail
is the Internet version of direct  marketing,  and the Company feels it shall be
proven to be an  important  method by which the Company may  continue to promote
its Web  site to an  increasing  number  of  registered  consumers.  To a lesser
extent,  the Company  plans to attract new  customers  through more  traditional
media, such as print advertisements and spots on drive-time radio.

     The Company's  in-house sales force develops and implements its advertising
strategies,    including   identifying   strategic   accounts   and   developing
presentations  and  promotional  materials.  As of June 15,  1999,  the  Company
employs one person to carry out its sales and marketing activities.  That person
has been assigned to all the product industry segments and solicits  advertising
contracts from companies in those  industries  and their  agencies.  The Company
plans to increase the size of its sales force as sales increase.

     The Company also enters into  cross-marketing  relationships with other Web
sites. By putting click-through banners on other Web sites, traffic generated on
one Web site has the ability to move easily to the  Company's Web site by simply
clicking on the banner.

Manufacturing

     The Company does not plan to become a manufacturer  or producer of Monterey
specialty food or wine products.

                                     Page 6
<PAGE>
Research and Development

     Since its inception, the Company has devoted significant time and financial
resources to research and development activities to develop its current products
and services.  The Company  anticipates that a portion of its ongoing operations
will continue to include  research and  development  activities due to the rapid
technological  evolution of  Internet-based  commerce.  Research and development
expenditures  were $5,000 in 1998.  There is no assurance  that the Company will
successfully  develop these products or services,  or that  competitors will not
develop products or services sooner or products or services that are superior to
the Company's product or service offerings.

Patents, Trademarks and Proprietary Rights

     The  Company  has not filed any  patent  applications  with  respect to its
business.  Although the Company does not believe that would presently  provide a
competitive  advantage,  there  is  no  assurance  that  in  the  future  patent
protection will not be of substantial  importance to the Company's  business and
future prospects.

     There is no  assurance  that a court  having  jurisdiction  over a  dispute
challenging  their  validity  will not hold  patents  that may be  issued to the
Company in the future invalid or  unenforceable.  Even if patents are upheld and
are  not  challenged,   third  parties  might  be  able  to  develop  equivalent
technologies  or products or services  without  infringing  such  patents or the
Company  could be  required to expend  substantial  funds in order to defend its
patents.

     There  is  no  assurance  that  any  particular  aspect  of  the  Company's
technology  will not be found to infringe the rights of other  companies.  Other
companies  may hold or obtain  patents  on  inventions  or may  otherwise  claim
proprietary rights to technology useful or necessary to the Company's  business.
The extent to which the  Company may be  required  to seek  licenses  under such
proprietary  rights  of  third  parties,  and the cost or  availability  of such
licenses,  cannot be  predicted.  While it may be  necessary or desirable in the
future to obtain  licenses  relating to one or more of its proposed  products or
relating  to  current or future  technologies,  there is no  assurance  that the
Company will be able to do so on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

     There  is no  assurance  that  the  measures  taken  by  the  Company  will
adequately protect the confidentiality of the Company's proprietary  information
or that others will not independently develop products, services or technologies
that are equivalent or superior to those of the Company.  Moreover,  the Company
may also be subject to litigation to defend  against claims of  infringement  of
the rights of others or to determine the scope and validity of the  intellectual
property  rights to others.  If  competitors  of the  Company  prepare  and file
applications  in the United States that claim  trademarks  used or registered by
the  Company,  the  Company  may oppose  those  applications  and be required to
participate in proceedings  before the United States Patent and Trademark Office
to  determine  priority  or  rights  to the  trademark,  which  could  result in
substantial costs to the Company.  Similarly,  actions could be brought by third
parties claiming that the Company's  products  infringe patents owned by others.
An adverse  outcome  could require the Company to license  disputed  rights from
third parties or to cease using such trademarks or infringing products.

     Any litigation  regarding the Company's  proprietary rights could be costly
and  divert  management's  attention,  result  in the  loss  of  certain  of the
Company's  proprietary  rights,  require the Company to seek licenses from third
parties and prevent the Company from selling its products and services,  any one
of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results
of operations  and  financial  condition.  In addition,  inasmuch as the Company
obtains a substantial  portion of its content and all of its products from third
parties, its exposure to copyright infringement actions may increase because the
Company must rely upon such third parties for  information  as to the origin and
ownership of such licensed content or products.  The Company generally  attempts
to obtain  representations  as to the origins  and  ownership  of such  licensed
content or products and generally obtains indemnification to cover any breach of
any  such  representations;  however,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  such
representations  will be accurate or that such  indemnification  will adequately
protect the Company.

Competition

     The Company will face intense  competition in every aspect of its business,
including  competition  for  consumers  of food  products  and  vendors  of food
products.  The  business  of  using  the  Internet  as  a  medium  is  currently
experiencing   explosive   growth  and  is   characterized  by  extremely  rapid
technological  developments,  rapid changes in consumer habits and  preferences,
massive  infusions  of capital,  and the  emergence of a large number of new and
established  companies  with  aspirations to control as much of the Web products
distribution  process as possible. A relatively small number of these companies,
including  America On Line and Yahoo!,  currently  control  primary or secondary
access of significant percentages of all Internet consumers and, therefore, have
a  competitive  advantage  in  marketing  to those  consumers.  Other  large and
established  companies,  such as local and long  distance  telephone  companies,
cable companies,  satellite programming providers,  and others, have established
relationships  with large  customer  bases and are  rapidly  expanding  into the
provision of Internet  services.  Although the Company does not believe that any
of  these  companies  have  financial,  technological,   promotional  and  other
resources that are much greater than those available to the Company. Most larger
competitors could purchase  technology to provide services directly  competitive
with the Company.

     The Company competes with (i) other Web sites and Internet  broadcasters to
acquire and provide  gourmet  food  products to attract  consumers,  (ii) online
services,  other  Web  site  operators  and  advertising  networks,  as  well as
traditional  media  such  as  television,  radio  and  print,  for  a  share  of
advertisers'  total  advertising  budgets,  (iii) local  radio,  and  television
stations and national  radio and  television  networks for sales of  advertising
spots,  (iv) other Web site operators  engaged in e-commerce,  and (v) specialty
gourmet food and beverage wholesalers and retail stores.

     Competition  among Web sites that  provide  access to consumer  products is
intense and is expected to  increase  significantly  in the future.  The Company
competes  against a variety of businesses  that sell gourmet food through one or
more media, such as print, radio, television, cable television and the Internet.
Traditional media companies that have not established a significant  presence on
the  Internet may expend  resources to establish  such a presence in the future.
The Company  competes  generally  with other gourmet food producers for the time
and  attention  of  consumers   and  for   advertising   revenues.   To  compete
successfully,  the Company must contract to obtain and then provide over the Web
sufficiently  compelling  and popular  gourmet  foods to attract  consumers  and
support advertising intended to reach such consumers.  The Company believes that
the principal  competitive  factors in attracting Internet consumers include the
quality  of food  products  offered  and the  relevance,  timeliness,  depth and
breadth of content and services offered.  The Company also competes for the time
and  attention of Internet  consumers  with  thousands of Web sites  operated by
businesses  and other  organizations,  individuals,  governmental  agencies  and
educational institutions.  The Company expects competition to intensify, and the
number of competitors to increase  significantly in the future. In addition,  as
the Company expands the scope of its products menu and services, it will compete
directly with a greater number of Web sites and other media  companies.  Because
the  operations  and  strategic  plans of existing  and future  competitors  are
undergoing  rapid  changes,  it  is  extremely  difficult  for  the  Company  to
anticipate which companies are likely to offer competitive  services or products
in the future.

     The Company also competes with online  services,  other Web site  operators
and  advertising  networks,  as well as traditional  media,  such as television,
radio and print,  for a share of advertisers'  total  advertising  budgets.  The
Company  believes  that  the  principal   competitive   factors  for  attracting
advertisers  include the number of consumers  accessing  the Company's Web site,
the demographics of the Company's  consumers,  the Company's  ability to deliver
focused  advertising  and  interactivity  through its Web site,  and the overall
effectiveness and value of advertising offered by the Company.  There is intense
competition  for the same  advertising  on  high-traffic  Web  sites,  which has
resulted in a wide range of rates quoted by  different  vendors for a variety of
advertising  services,  making  it  difficult  to  project  levels  of  Internet
advertising  that will be realized  generally  or by any specific  company.  Any
competition  for  advertisers  among  present or future  Web  sites,  as well as
competition with other traditional media for advertising placements,  results in
significant price competition. The Company believes that the number of companies
selling  advertising  and the  available  inventory  of  advertising  space have
recently increased pricing pressure for the sale of advertisements. Reduction of
the Company's Web advertising  revenues would have a material  adverse effect on
the Company's business results of operations and financial  condition.  There is
no assurance that the Company will be able to compete in its chosen market.

Government Regulation

     Although there are currently few laws and regulations  directly  applicable
to the Internet,  it is likely that new laws and regulations  will be adopted in
the United States,  and elsewhere,  covering  issues like  copyrights,  privacy,
pricing, sales taxes and characteristics and quality of Internet services. It is
possible that governments  will enact  legislation that may be applicable to the
Company in areas such as content,  network  security,  encryption and the use of
key escrow, data and privacy protection,  electronic authentication or "digital"
signatures,  illegal and harmful  content,  account  charges and  retransmission
activities.  Moreover,  the  applicability  to the  Internet  of  existing  laws
governing such issues such as property ownership,  content, taxation, defamation
and  personal  privacy  and  commercialization  of  the  Internet  is  presently
uncertain and, as a result,  do not expressly  contemplate or address the unique
issues of the  Internet  and  related  technologies.  As such,  export or import
restrictions,   new   legislation  or   governmental   enforcement  of  existing
regulations may limit the growth of the Internet, increase the Company's cost of
doing business,  or increase the Company's  legal  exposure,  which could have a
material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  business,  financial  condition and
results of operations.

     By  distributing  products over the Internet,  the Company faces  potential
liability  claims  based on the  nature  and  content  of the  material  that it
distributes,  including claims for defamation,  negligence, copyright, patent or
trademark   infringement,   which  claims  have  been  brought,   and  sometimes
successfully  litigated,  against  Internet  companies.  Because  the Company is
currently  selling  wines  over the  Internet,  the  Company is  required  to be
licensed  as an alcohol  vendor  with the  California  Department  of  Alcoholic
Beverage Control. The Company's general liability not covered by insurance or in
excess  of  insurance  coverage  could  have a  material  adverse  effect on the
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Plan of Operations

     The Company has  formulated a plan of operations for the next twelve months
as detailed  below.  The Company intends to use the net proceeds of its Internet
sales and credit line, if and when  established,  to improve its inventory,  Web
site advertising and promotions.  A substantial increase in these expenses shall
occur in October, November and December during the height of the holiday season,
during which 80 percent of the Company's sales are expected to occur.

     In the Company's opinion,  proceeds from possible future equity funding and
loans will satisfy its cash requirements for the next twelve months. The Company
has  financed  its  operations  since  inception  from  the  sale of  equity,  a
short-term  loan and a limited amount of  Internet-based  sales.  The Company is
currently  negotiating  for a  short-term  working  capital  loan  with the same
individual third party who originated a previous loan to the Company. Management
believes  that this private  lender will finance the Company's  working  capital
based on the good  performance  of the previous loan which the Company is paying
as agreed.  During the next six months certain funds will need to be raise.  The
Company has no engineering,  management or similar report that has been prepared
or provided for external use by the issuer or underwriter.

     By  the  end of  fiscal  1999,  the  Company  plans  to  have  successfully
introduced  its product  lines and labels on the  Internet  and  eliminated  any
technical  complications  concerning  its Web Site.  In order to  implement  the
strategic plan and meet the Company's  anticipated  working  capital needs,  the
Company  estimates  that it will  require  $150,000  in  capital  ($125,000  for
short-term  financing and $25,000 for marketing  and product  development).  The
short-term financing would include accounts receivable. The Company is currently
seeking a $150,000 line of credit with several interested financial institutions
and/or bridge financing from investment firms.

     The  Company's net revenues were $25,797 for the six months of sales ending
December 31, 1998. The Company's  sales were  generated from outside  promotions
while the Company  established  its  purchasing  ability,  developed its product
lines, and performed research and development. Cost of sales was $16,843 for the
six months  ending  December  31, 1998,  primarily  representing  purchases  and
supplies. Operating expenses were $42,364 for the six months ending December 31,
1998,  primarily  advertising,  consulting fees, postage for catalogs,  dues and
subscriptions.  The Company's  operating loss for the six months ending December
31,  1998  was  $33,410,  primarily  due  to  consulting  fees  and  promotions.
Management  anticipates  that the Company  shall  achieve a profit by the fourth
quarter of 1999.

                                     Page 9
<PAGE>
     Despite  low cash  reserves,  additional  funds may be required in order to
proceed  with the  business  plan  outlined  above.  These funds would be raised
through additional private placements or other financial  arrangements including
debt or equity.  There is no assurance  that such  additional  financing will be
available  when  required in order to proceed with the business plan or that the
Company's ability to respond to competition or changes in the market place or to
exploit  opportunities  will  not  be  limited  by  lack  of  available  capital
financing.  If the Company is  unsuccessful  in securing the additional  capital
needed to continue operations within the time required,  the Company will not be
in a position to continue  operations and the stockholders may lose their entire
investment.

Employees

     As of June  15,  1999,  the  Company  has  one  full-time  employee  who is
primarily  engaged  in  marketing  and  sales.  Because  the  Company  is  in  a
developmental  stage, two part-time  consultants provide services to the Company
in the areas of ongoing Web site support  research and development and financial
consulting.  The  Company  makes  use  of  additional  outside  consultants  and
independent  contractors to perform  various  functions,  such as legal matters,
programming, engineering, development, and accounting. The Company believes this
approach  not only  allows  it to limit  expenses,  but  also  provides  maximum
flexibility to react to a changing Internet business environment.  The Company's
employees are not  represented by a labor union.  The Company  believes that its
employee relations are good.

     As orders increase, the Company will employ one additional person to handle
shipping,  excess order  taking,  and  assembling  the variety of products  into
basket or gift  packs as they are  ordered  over the  Internet.  During the peak
holiday season,  which is November and December, a second person shall be needed
on a temporary  basis to  assemble  holiday  gift  packages.  The  Company  will
continue  its ongoing  business  with hotels and other  clients to whom they are
currently selling gift packages and baskets.

     The Company's  executive offices are located at 542 Lighthouse Avenue in an
approximately 300 square foot facility in Pacific Grove, California. This space,
which  houses all of the  Company's  current  operations,  (other than  off-site
product storage) is leased on a  month-to-month  rental  agreement.  The monthly
base  rental  payment  under  the  agreement   (not   including   insurance)  is
approximately  $300.  For the  peak  holiday  season,  the  Company  shall  rent
temporary  space in November and  December to perform  high volume  shipping and
storage.

     The Company expects to have two full-time employees by the end of 1999. The
President will perform a multitude of company  functions,  along with a shipping
person and a salesperson. A full-time office manager will be added in the second
year,  which  would  include  bookkeeping,  as well as accounts  receivable  and
payable.

Item 1.   Market Price of and  Dividends  on the  Registrant's  Common  Equity
          and Other Stockholder Matters

     There is currently no public  market for the Company's  stock.  The Company
has never paid dividends. At present, the Company does not anticipate paying any
dividends  on its Common Stock in the  foreseeable  future and intends to devote
any earnings to the development of the Company's business.

Item 2.   Legal Proceedings

     There are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

Item 3.   Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants

     The Company  has had no changes in or  disagreements  with its  Accountants
since inception.

Item 4.   Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

     The Company  offered for sale a Private  Placement  Memorandum  pursuant to
Regulation D, Rule 504 which commenced August 10, 1998 and concluded January 11,
1999. This offering was for 1,200,000  shares of common stock at $0.10 per share
for a total  offering  of  $120,000.  All  shares  were  sold  to a total  of 49
accredited  and 7 unaccredited  investors.  The proceeds from this offering were
used for  working  capital,  legal  and  accounting  fees,  consulting  fees and
inventory.

Item 5.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers

     So far as permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes,  the Company's Articles
of  Incorporation  provide that the Company will  indemnify  its  Directors  and
Officers against  expenses and liabilities they may incur and defend,  settle or
satisfy any civil or criminal  action  brought  against them on account of their
being or having been Company  Directors or Officers unless,  in any such action,
they are  adjudged  to have acted with gross  negligence  or to have  engaged in
willful misconduct. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  and the Securities  Exchange Act of 19-314,
as amended,  (collectively,  the "Acts") may be permitted to directors, officers
or controlling  persons pursuant to foregoing  provisions,  the Company has been
informed that, in the opinion of the Securities  and Exchange  Commission,  such
indemnification  is  against  public  policy  as  expressed  in the Acts and is,
therefore, unenforceable.

To the Board of Directors
Internet Food Company, Incorporated
Monterey, California

                          Independent Auditor's Report

I have audited the balance sheet of Internet Food  Company,  Incorporated  as of
December 31,1998 and the related statements of operation,  stockholders'  equity
and cash flows from the date of inception to December 31, 1998.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audit in accordance with generally  accepted auditing  standards.
Those standards  require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain  reasonable
assurance   about  whether  the  financial   statements  are  free  of  material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the  amounts  and  assessing  the  accounting  principles  used and  significant
estimates  made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial
statement presentation. I believe that my audit provides reasonable basis for my
opinion.

In my opinion,  the  financial  statements  referred  to in the first  paragraph
present fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of Internet
Food Co.,  Incorporated,  as of December 31, 1998 and the results of  operations
and its cash  flows  from  inception  through  December  31,  1998 then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared  assuming the Company
will  continue  as a going  concern.  As  discussed  in Note 9 to the  financial
statements,  the Company has incurred net losses since  inception,  which raises
substantial  doubt  about  its  ability  to  continue  as a going  concern.  The
financial  statements do not include any  adjustment  that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               December 31, 1998

NOTE 1    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

          Nature of the  business - Internet  Food  Company,  Inc. was formed to
          sell retail  gourmet and  specialty  cheese on the  internet  and at a
          retail location.  The Company was  incorporated  under the laws of the
          State of Nevada on April 14,  1998.  The  Company is  currently  doing
          business as California Cheese Connection.

          Pervasiveness  of estimates - The preparation of financial  statements
          in conformity with generally accepted  accounting  principles requires
          management to make 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.

          Cash and  cash  equivalents  - For  financial  statement  presentation
          purposes,  the Company  considers  all short term  investments  with a
          maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

          Inventories - Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or market,
          using the first-in,  first-out method. Inventories consist principally
          of cheeses and specialty food items.

          Bad debts and accounts receivable - No allowance for doubtful accounts
          has been  recorded  as  management  believes  all  amounts to be fully
          collectible.

          Equipment- Equipment is recorded at cost.  Maintenance and repairs are
          expensed as incurred;  major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
          As the  equipment on the balance  sheet was  purchased at year end, no
          provision for depreciation is made in the current year.

          Income  taxes-  Income  taxes  are  provided  for the tax  effects  of
          transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes
          currently due plus deferred  taxes  related  primarily to  differences
          between  the  recorded   book  basis  and  tax  basis  of  assets  and
          liabilities  for financial and income tax reporting.  The deferred tax
          assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of
          those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the
          assets and  liabilities  are recovered or settled.  Deferred taxes are
          also  recognized  for  operating  losses that are  available to offset
          future  taxable  income and tax credits  that are  available to offset
          future federal income taxes.

          for working  capital until the Company becomes  profitable.  The notes
          will be  repaid  from  operations  when  there is  sufficient  working

          incorporation  and no amount was reflected on the Company's  books for
          the consideration.

                               December 31, 1998

NOTE 5    Related  party  transactions  - On August 1, 1998 the Company  entered
          into an agreement  with a shareholder  to provide  investment  banking
          services.  Total  amount  paid the company  for these  services  was $
          21,237 for the period ending December 31, 1998.

          As previously discussed, the Company entered into agreements with some
          of its shareholders to provide bridge loans for continuing  operations
          of the Company.  Total proceeds from the borrowings were $ 15,490. The
          shareholders were given stock for providing theses loans.

NOTE 6    INCOME TAXES

          The  benefit  for  income  taxes  from  operations  consisted  of  the
          following components. Current tax benefit of $ 10,391 resulting from a
          net loss before  income  taxes,  and  deferred tax expense of $ 10,391
          resulting from the valuation  allowance  recorded against the deferred
          tax asset  resulting  from the net operating  loss.  The change in the
          valuation allowance for the period from inception through December 31,
          1998 was $ 10,391. Net operating loss carryforward will expire 2013.

          The  valuation  allowance  will be  evaluated at the end of each year,
          considering  positive and negative  evidence  about  whether the asset
          will be realized.  At the time the allowance  will either be increased
          or reduced;  reduction could result in the complete elimination of the
          allowance  if  positive  evidence  indicates  that  the  value  of the
          deferred tax asset is no longer required.  It is management's position
          that  the  deferred  tax  asset be  recorded  when  there is  positive
          evidence it will be realized.

NOTE 7    STOCK OPTIONS

          Subsequent  to year end,  on January 1, 1999 and  January 28, 1999 the
          Board  of   Directors   voted  to  issue  stock   options  to  various
          individuals.  The options are to be  exercised by February 15, 1999 at
          the  price of $.01.  There  were a total of  1,040,000  options  to be
          exercised.  All options were  exercised  by the due date.  The options
          were granted for services rendered.

NOTE 8   SOP 98-5

          The Company elects under SOP 98-5 to expense the organizational  costs
          and start up costs in the period ending December 31, 1998.

NOTE 9    GOING CONCERN

          As of December  31, 1998,  the Company has net losses since  inception
          and negative equity which raises  substantial  doubt about its ability
          to continue as a going concern.

          The Company is in the process of raising  additional  working  capital
          through a public  offering of its common  stock,  which is expected to
          provide liquidity until operations become  profitable.  Management has
          subsequent  to year  end was  able  to get  its  internet  site up and
          running.   This  is  expected  to  provide   additional  sales.  Also,
          management  has stepped up its efforts to increase its sales to hotels
          and other businesses.

          The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
          successful  public  offering  and  ultimately   achieving   profitable
          operations.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful
          in its  efforts to raise  additional  proceeds  or achieve  profitable
          operations.  The financial  statements do not include any  adjustments
          that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Common Stock

Dividends ...................The holders of Shares shall be entitled to receive
                             dividends when, as and if the board of directors of
                             the Company so  determines.  Any  dividend  may be
                             payable in a proportionate amount of shares of
                             Common Stock. The declaration of dividends for
                             Common  Stock  is  discretionary,  not  mandatory,
                             with the Company's board of directors.


Redemption ..................The Shares are not subject to discretionary
                             redemption by the Company.


Voting Rights ...............Holders of the Shares have voting rights and powers
                             equal to the rights and powers of other holders of
                             Common Stock, as well as the right to notice of all
                             stockholders' meetings. A vote of 51 percent of the
                             holders of Common Stock is required to amend  the
                             Company's Charter.  As a class, the holders  of the
                             Shares purchased pursuant to this Offering shall
                             own, as a group, approximately seven percent of the
                             Company's issued and outstanding stock, assuming
                             that this Offering is fully subscribed.


     The Company. The Company is a Nevada corporation,  which intends to solicit
and  market  Monterey  and  other  Central  California  specialty  food and wine
products, gift packages and gift boxes on the worldwide internet.  Specifically,
the  Company  intends  to offer to  online  consumers  specialty  food  products
primarily from Monterey County,  including clam chowders,  salsas, Monterey Jack
cheeses,  garlic mustards,  and wines. The Company shall depend upon third party
manufacturers in order to manufacture,  deliver and/or drop ship the products to
buyers.

     Risk  Factors.   An  investment  in  the  Shares  offered  hereby  is  very
speculative  and involves a high degree of risk.  Prospective  investors  should
carefully consider the matters discussed in this Memorandum under "Risk Factors"
prior to any  investment in the Company.  Some of the  significant  risk factors
include:

          The Company is in its initial phase of development, has no significant
          assets,  and has no meaningful  operating  history.  Dependence of the
          Company on one key  management  employee,  Ms. Janice M. Demianew (the
          "Founder"),  and the possibility  that the Company will not be able to
          attract or retain key personnel.

          The  Company  may be  unable  to raise  sufficient  additional  equity
          capital to further pursue development of its products and its internet
          customer base.

          Risks  associated  with  investment  in a  newly-formed  company which
          anticipates a rapid period of growth.

          The  Company   has  issued   stock  to  the   Founder,   for  no  cash
          consideration,  and may issue additional shares of Common or Preferred
          Stock in the  future,  resulting  in a dilution  in the book value per
          Share of the Shares purchased by investors in this Offering.

          Despite the intent of the Company's management, the possibility exists
          that  none  of the  Company's  shares  may  ever  be  publicly-traded,
          including the Shares purchased in this offering,  thereby lowering the
          expected return on the investors' investment in the Shares.

          The  price  at  which  the  Shares  are  offered  hereby  has been set
          arbitrarily by management,  and has no  relationship to the book value
          per  share,  current  earnings  of the  Company,  or  other  generally
          accepted measurements of value.

          Even if this  Offering is fully  subscribed,  the Company may not have
          sufficient funds to support its ongoing  operations beyond the next 12
          months,  hence requiring the Company to obtain additional financing in
          the future,  which financing may not be available on acceptable terms,
          if at all.

          The  Company  does  not  presently  intend  to pay  dividends  for the
          foreseeable  future,  but intends to retain all earnings,  if any, for
          use to meet the Company's operating expenses and growth strategy.

          The Company's  financial  statements  are limited to the balance sheet
          attached hereto as Exhibit "A".

     Investor Suitability Standards.  This Offering is limited only to investors
who qualify as "accredited  investors" as defined under  Regulation D, Rules 501
through 508, promulgated by the SEC, or unaccredited investors who, either alone
or with their purchaser representative(s), have such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that they are sufficiently  capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the proposed  investment in the Shares.  An  "accredited
investor" is an investor who,  together with his or her spouse,  has a net worth
of at least $1,000,000 or had an annual income  (exclusive of that of his or her
spouse)  in excess  of  $200,000  in each of the last two  years and  reasonably
expects an income (exclusive of that of his or her spouse) in excess of $200,000
in the current  year.  For those  investing  as husband  and wife as  accredited
investors, their joint annual income must exceed $300,000 in each of those years
with  a  reasonable   expectation  of  $300,000  income  in  the  current  year.
Suitability standards for investors other than natural persons (entities such as
corporations,  partnerships and trusts) are more complex.  In addition,  certain
other entities may also be deemed to be accredited  but, in most cases,  only if
every owner of a beneficial  interest in such an entity satisfies one or more of
the standards above.

     Prior to acceptance of a subscription,  each  prospective  investor will be
required to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Company,  in writing,  in the
Subscription  Agreement and Questionnaire  contained in the Subscription Booklet
which is enclosed with this Memorandum, that the prospective purchaser is either
an  accredited  investor  or  otherwise  satisfies  the  suitability   standards
established  by the  Company  herein  for  unaccredited  investors.  Failure  to
complete and execute these attached  documents  will result in the  subscription
being rejected.

     Representations  regarding accreditation or suitability will be reviewed to
determine the status of each  prospective  investor,  and the Company  expressly
reserves  the right to refuse a  subscription  if,  in its sole  discretion,  it
believes the prospective investor does not meet the applicable  accreditation or
suitability  requirements  or  that  the  Shares  are  otherwise  an  unsuitable
investment for the prospective investor.

     The Common  Stock  which  comprise  the Shares are  subject to  substantial
restrictions  on resale  pursuant to the  Securities Act and Regulation D, Rules
501 through 508 promulgated thereunder,  the laws of the various states in which
the Shares are offered,  as well as the  Company's  Charter.  Specifically,  the
securities  offered herein may not be resold without being registered under both
the Securities Act and qualified under the state  securities laws of the various
states in which the Shares  are sold,  or  pursuant  to an  exemption  from such
registration and qualification.  An investment in the Shares is recommended only
for those persons who are sophisticated in financial and business  matters,  can
withstand  a  complete  loss of  their  investment,  and  have  no need  for the
immediate return of their investment.

<PAGE>

                                  RISK FACTORS

     AN INVESTMENT  IN THE SHARES OF THE COMPANY  INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK
AND SHOULD BE REGARDED AS HIGHLY  SPECULATIVE.  AS A RESULT, THE PURCHASE OF THE
SHARES  SHOULD BE  CONSIDERED  ONLY BY  PERSONS  WHO CAN  AFFORD A LOSS OF THEIR
ENTIRE  INVESTMENT.  IN  ADDITION  TO THE OTHER  INFORMATION  CONTAINED  IN THIS
MEMORANDUM, PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING:

     Limited Operating History.  The Company is newly-organized,  in its initial
stage  of  development,  lacks a  meaningful  prior  operating  history,  and is
entirely  dependent upon the proceeds of this Offering in order to implement its
business  plans.  As of June 30,  1998 the  Company  had no  working  capital or
accumulated deficit.  The Company has no material tangible assets.  Accordingly,
an  investment  in the  Shares  is  highly  speculative  and is only a  suitable
investment for an investor who recognizes the high risks  involved,  has no need
for  liquidity  in the  investment  and  who  can  afford  a  total  loss of his
investment.  There is no assurance that the Company's  business strategy will be
successful,  or that  additional  capital  will not be required to continue  its
business operations.

     Dependence on Founder.  The Company is highly  dependent on the services of
its Founder,  Ms. Janice M.  Demianew,  who is the  President,  Chief  Executive
Officer  and  Chairman of the  Company.  The loss of her  services  would have a
materially  adverse  impact  on the  Company.  The  Company  does not  currently
maintain any key man life insurance policy with respect to the Founder.

     Possible  Difficulty  in Raising  Additional  Equity  Capital.  There is no
assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional equity capital in an
amount which is  sufficient  to continue  operations  after the proceeds of this
Offering have been used.  Although the Company believes that the net proceeds of
the Offering will fund its general  working capital for not less than 12 months,
there can be no assurance that the Company will have sufficient funds to support
ongoing operations.  In the event the Company requires additional financing, the
Company will seek such financing  through bank  borrowing,  debt or other equity
financing,  corporate partnerships or otherwise.  There can be no assurance that
such financing will be available to the Company on acceptable  terms, if at all.
The Company does not  presently  have a credit line  available  with any lending
institution.  Any additional equity financing may involve the sale of additional
shares of the Company's  Common Stock or Preferred  Stock on terms that have not
yet been  established.  These terms may be more favorable  than those  contained
herein.  Any future sales of securities would necessarily  result in dilution to
the investors of this Offering.

     Risks of Rapid Growth.  The Company,  which is newly-formed,  anticipates a
period of rapid growth which may place strains upon the Company's management and
operational  resources.  The Company's ability to manage growth effectively will
require the Company to  successfully  integrate its business and  administrative
operations into one dynamic management structure.

     Possible Issuance of Additional  Shares.  The Company has authorized shares
of Common Stock.  The Company  presently has  outstanding  15,285,000  shares of
Common Stock,  the only class of stock of the Company for which shares have been
previously  issued. At the commencement of this Offering,  the Company will have
authorized,  but unissued,  50,000,000  shares of Common Stock.  The Company has
100,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance to Ms. Diane S. Button,  an
employee, for past services rendered to the Company. See "Description of Capital
Stock." This leaves a balance of 33,415,000 shares of the 50,000,000  authorized
shares of Common  Stock  available  for future  issuance.  The Company may issue
shares of Common Stock beyond those  already  issued for cash,  services,  or as
further  employee  incentives.  To the extent that  additional  shares of Common
Stock are issued,  the percentage of the Company's issued and outstanding shares
of Common Stock  underlying  the Shares shall be increased  and the issuance may
cause additional  dilution in the book value per share of the underlying  Common
Stock. See "Description of Capital Stock."

     Restrictions on Transfer and Lack of Liquidity.  No registration  statement
under the Securities Act has been or is intended to be filed with respect to the
Shares.  The Common  Stock may not be sold or  transferred  by  holders  thereof

                                     Page 4

August 10, 1998                                         Internet Food Co., Inc.
                                      Confidential Private Placement Memorandum
<PAGE>
unless  such  a  registration  statement  is  subsequently  filed  and  declared
effective under the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration
is  available.  There is no public  or other  market  for the  Shares or for any
securities issued by the Company,  nor is such a market likely to develop in the
foreseeable future.  Accordingly, as long as the Company remains privately-held,
an investor may be required to hold the Shares for an indeterminate time and may
never be able to liquidate his or her investment.

     Absence of Public  Market.  No assurance can be given that the Company will
operate ever in such a manner as to enable the Company to successfully  complete
an initial public offering of any classes of its shares ("IPO"). Failure to have
an IPO may  substantially  reduce the  resources  of the Company  available  for
business development,  as well as the net earnings available for distribution to
the Company's stockholders.

     Control by Existing  Common  Stockholders  and  Founder  and  Anti-Takeover
Provisions.  Following  consummation of this Offering, the Founder and Ms. Diane
S. Button will own between  approximately  73 percent of the outstanding  voting
shares of the Company,  assuming a fully subscribed Offering.  Accordingly,  the
Founder will have the ability to control the election of the Company's directors
and most other stockholders'  actions. The Company's Charter (attached hereto as
Exhibit AB@)  currently  allows any action  required or permitted to be taken by
stockholders of the Company to be authorized at a duly-called  annual or special
meeting of the  stockholders or by any majority  consent in writing.  The Bylaws
(which are  attached  hereto as Exhibit  "C")  currently  provide  that  special
meetings of the  stockholders  of the Company may be called only by the board of
directors,  the Chairman or the  President.  The Charter  provisions and Bylaws,
whether or not amended,  may discourage certain types of transactions  involving
an actual or potential change in control of the Company,  including transactions
in which the  stockholders  might  otherwise  receive a premium for their shares
over then-current  market prices,  and may limit the ability of the stockholders
to approve  transactions  that they may deem to be in their best interests.  The
board of directors has the authority to fix the rights and  preferences  of, and
to issue,  shares of Preferred  Stock,  which may have the effect of delaying or
preventing  a  change  in  control  of  the  Company   without   action  by  the
stockholders. See ACertain Provisions of Nevada Law.@

     Arbitrary  Offering Price. The price at which the Shares are offered hereby
has been arbitrarily set by the Company's management, and has no relationship to
the book value per share,  current  earnings of the Company,  or other generally
accepted measurement of value.

     Substantial Dilution. Purchasers of the Shares offered hereby may suffer an
immediate and  substantial  dilution in net tangible book value of their Shares.
See "Dilution."

     Dividends Not Likely. No dividends on this Company's Common Stock have been
declared or paid by the Company,  to date. The Company does not presently intend
to pay dividends on its shares for the foreseeable future, but intends to retain
all  earnings,  if  any,  for use in the  Company's  business.  There  can be no
assurance that  dividends  will ever be paid on the Common Stock.  Investors who
anticipate  the need for dividends  from their  investment in the Company should
not purchase the Shares offered hereby.

     Limited  Financial  Statements.  The  Company's  financial  statements  are
limited to the balance sheet and notes attached hereto as Exhibit "A".

     Introduction  of New  Products  by  Specialty  Food  Suppliers  and  Market
Acceptance.  The Company=s long-term operating results depend substantially upon
its food  suppliers=  ability to continue to conceive of,  design and market new
specialty food products and upon continuing  market acceptance of its suppliers=
existing and future  specialty  food products.  In the ordinary  course of their
businesses,  the  Company=s  suppliers  regularly  develop  new  specialty  food
products and create additions to their existing food product lines.  Significant
delays by the Companys=  specialty  food  suppliers in the  introduction  of, or
their  failure to  introduce  or market,  new  products  or  additions  to their
respective  product lines could impair the Company=s results of operations.  The
specialty  food consumer  markets are affected by changing  consumer  tastes and
interests, which are difficult to predict and over which the Company=s suppliers

                                     Page 5

August 10, 1998                                         Internet Food Co., Inc.
                                      Confidential Private Placement Memorandum
<PAGE>
and the Company have little, if any,  control.  These products in any event have
limited  life  cycles  and may be  discontinued  by the  suppliers  at any time.
Accordingly,  there can be no assurance  that existing or future  specialty food
products of the Company=s food  suppliers  will maintain or receive  substantial
market acceptance.  In addition, the Company=s profitability will also depend on
the strength of the U.S. and  worldwide  economies  which can affect  consumers=
spending  habits on such items as specialty  foods.  Any downturn in the U.S. or
worldwide  economy  could  have a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Company=s
business, financial condition and results of operations.

     Competition.  The  Company  faces  significant  competition  in each of its
specialty  food  product  segments.  The  Company  believes  that  the  basis of
competition  in  specialty  food  products is price,  quality and the ability to
produce in required volumes and to timely meet delivery  schedules.  The Company
expects increased  competition from other industry participants that may seek to
enter one or more of the Company=s high margin specialty food product  segments.
Many of the Company=s  existing and  potential  competitors  have  significantly
greater  financial,  technical,  production,  and marketing  resources  than the
Company.

     Potential Product Liability.  The Company is engaged in business that could
result in possible claims for injury or damage resulting from its specialty food
products. The Company is not currently, nor has it been in the past, a defendant
in any  product  liability  lawsuit.  The  Company  does  not  maintain  product
liability  insurance.  A  successful  claim  brought  against  the  Company by a
customer  of the  Company or a consumer  and the  adverse  publicity  that could
accompany any harm caused to a consumer by a specialty  food product sold by the
Company  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  business,
financial condition or results of operations.

     ERISA Considerations.  In considering an investment in the Shares on behalf
of a pension or  profit-sharing  plan  (including  a Keogh plan and an IRA) or a
welfare benefit plan, the plan fiduciary  should  consider,  among other things,
the following  matters under the Employment  Retirement  Income  Security Act of
1974,  as  amended  ("ERISA"):  whether  the  investment  in the  Shares  (i) is
permissible  under the  documents  and  instruments  governing  the  plan;  (ii)
satisfies  the   diversification   requirements  of  ERISA;   (iii)  is  prudent
considering  all of the facts and  circumstances,  including the fact that there
will not be any public market for the disposition of the Shares;  (iv) is solely
made in the interest of the  participants  in the plan; and (v) could result in,
or cause, a prohibited transaction.

                                    DILUTION

     Dilution is a reduction  in the net  tangible  book value of a  purchaser=s
investment  measured by the  difference  between the purchase  price and the net
tangible  book value of the  Shares  after the  purchase  takes  place.  The net
tangible book value of Common Stock is equal to stockholders=  equity applicable
to the Common Stock outstanding.  As a result of such dilution, in the event the
Company is  liquidated,  a purchaser of Shares may receive less than his initial
investment and a holder of stock prior to this Offering may receive more.

     The net tangible  book value of the  Company=s  Common Stock as of June 30,
1998 was $0.00,  or $.00 per share.  After  giving  effect to the receipt of the
estimated  gross  proceeds of $120,000 from the sale by the Company of 1,200,000
shares of Common Stock,  the pro forma net tangible book value would be $120,000
or $0.07 per share of Common Stock. This represents an immediate increase in net
tangible  book value of $0.07 per share of Common  Stock to existing  holders of
Common Stock from the proceeds of this Offering and substantial  dilution to the
new investors (i.e.,  the difference  between the assumed initial offering price
of $0.10 per Share of Common Stock and the pro forma net tangible book value per
Share) of $0.03 per Share of Common Stock.

                                   THE COMPANY

Business

     The Company will solicit  customers on the internet by featuring  specialty
food and wine products from Monterey  County,  including some of its surrounding
areas. The regions of central and northern California are identified  throughout
the world for their  picturesque  beauty and the quality of the  products  which
they make.  The  products  offered by the Company are all of high  quality  from
California,  including  products from  Monterey  like clam  chowder,  wines from
Monterey Peninsula and Napa Valley, sardines,  crackers,  salsa, garlic products
from Gilroy,  hand-rolled  Monterey  Jack  Cheeses,  stuffed  olives,  mustards,
candies,  cookies and salamis. Along with specialty foods, the Company will also
offer a variety of gift packages and baskets.

     Management  believes that the Company will be able to exploit its specialty
food  products on the  internet  and capture a  significant  percentage  of this
estimated  47  billion  dollar  consumer  market by the year 2000.  The  Company
eventually  intends to produce a catalog of specialty food products available to
all internet customers.

Litigation

     The  Company  is not  presently  a  party  to any  litigation  nor,  to the
knowledge of management, is any litigation threatened.

Market

     The  specialty  foods  market is forecast to reach sales of over 47 billion
dollars by the year 2000,  according  to the National  Association  of Specialty
Foods Trade,  Inc.  (NASFT).  The internet is widely  recognized as the critical
tool of the future to market most retail products, including goods, to consumers
and businesses.  In the area of gift giving, for example,  55 percent of flowers
sold on  1-800-FLOWERS  came via online the web in 1996.  The  estimated  amount
spent by end-users  on the internet on internet  products in 1996 was 19 billion
dollars,  while the estimated number of e-mail messages that will be sent in the
year 2000 is 6.9 trillion.

Competition

     Stores carry  specialty food products with limited space which are provided
primarily by national and regional chains food stores.  Management believes that
currently  there  are no  companies  offering  specialty  food  items  from  the
Monterey, Salinas and Carmel Counties on the internet.

                                     Page 9

August 10, 1998                                         Internet Food Co., Inc.
                                      Confidential Private Placement Memorandum
<PAGE>
and  Vice-President  will  receive  a modest  salary  per month for the next six

compensation of officers and directors. The Company shall reimburse its officers
and directors for any reasonable  out-of pocket  expenses  incurred on behalf of

Indemnification and Exclusion of Liability of Directors and Officers

     So far as permitted by the Nevada Business  Corporation  Act, the Company=s

against  expenses and liabilities  they may incur and defend,  settle or satisfy
any civil or criminal  action brought  against them on account of their being or
having been directors or officers of the Company  unless,  in such action,  they
are adjudged to have acted with gross  negligence  or to have engaged in willful
misconduct.  Insofar  as  indemnification  for  liabilities  arising  under  the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended,  and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended,  (collectively,  the AActs@) may be permitted to directors, officers or
controlling  persons  pursuant  to  foregoing  provisions,  the Company has been
informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public

     The Company has retained the services of Monterey Ventures, Inc. (AMVI@), a
private  investment  banking firm that  specializes in assisting  companies with
capital  growth  services.  The  Company  has  executed  an  Investment  Banking

corporate finances, and engineering the Company=s public market development. The
Company  will pay a cash fee of  $20,000  as  compensation  for  services  to be
rendered by MVI. Pursuant to this Investment Banking Agreement,  the Company has

Certain Provisions of Nevada Law

     The Company is a Nevada corporation and is subject to certain anti-takeover
provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes (ANRS@).

     Nevada's  Combination with Interested  Stockholders  Statute,@ NRS Sections
78.411 through 78.444 (the ACombination with Interested  Stockholders Statute@),
prohibits  an  Ainterested  stockholder,@  under  certain  circumstances,   from
entering  into  a  Acombination@  with  a  Nevada  corporation,  unless  certain
conditions are met. A Acombination@  includes (a) any merger with an Ainterested
stockholder,@ or any other corporation which is or after the merger would be, an
affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder, (b) certain sales, leases,
exchanges, mortgages, pledges, transfers or other dispositions of assets, in one
transaction or a series of transactions, to or with an Ainterested stockholder,@
(c) any issuance or transfer of shares of the  corporation or its  subsidiaries,
to the Ainterested  stockholder,@  having any aggregate  market value equal to 5
percent or more of the aggregate  market value of al the  outstanding  shares of
the corporation,  (d) the adoption of any plan or proposal or the liquidation or
dissolution of the  corporation  proposed by the Ainterested  stockholder,@  (e)
certain transactions which would result in increasing the proportionate share of
shares of the  corporation  owned by the  Ainterested  stockholder,@  or (f) the
receipt of benefits by an interested  stockholder,  except  proportionately as a
stockholder,  of any loans, advances or other financial benefits provided by the
corporation.  An  Ainterested  stockholder@  is  a  person  who,  together  with
affiliates and associates,  beneficially  owns (or within the prior three years,
did beneficially  own) 10 percent or more of the  corporation=s  voting stock. A
corporation  to which the  statute  applies  may not  engage in a  Acombination@
within three years after the interested  stockholder acquired its shares, unless
the  combination  or the  interested  stockholder=s  acquisition  of shares  was
approved by the board of directors  before the interested  stockholder  acquired
the shares.  Generally,  the combination may be consummated after the three-year
period expires if either (i) the board of directors of the corporation approved,
prior to such person becoming an interested stockholder,  the combination or the
purchase of shares by the  interested  stockholder  or (ii) the  combination  is
approved by the  affirmative  vote of holders of a majority of voting  power not
beneficially owned by the interested  stockholder at a meeting called no earlier
than three years after the date the interested  stockholder became an interested
director.

     Nevada's  Control Share  Acquisition  Statute,@ NRS Sections 78.378 through
78.3793 (the AControl Share Acquisition Statute@),  prohibits an acquirer, under
certain circumstances,  from voting shares of a target corporation=s stock after
crossing certain threshold  ownership  percentages,  unless the acquirer obtains
the  approval  of the  target  corporation=s  stockholders.  The  Control  Share
Acquisition  Statute  only  applies  to  Nevada  corporations  that do  business
directly or indirectly  in Nevada.  The Company does not intend to Ado business@
in  Nevada  within  the  meaning  of  the  Control  Share  Acquisition  Statute.
Therefore,  it is unlikely that the Control Share Acquisition Statute will apply
to the Company.

Limitation of Liability

     The NRS provides that a Nevada  corporation  may include in its articles of
incorporation a provision indemnifying officers, directors, employees and agents
against expenses,  including attorney=s fees, judgment,  fines, and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
the suit,  action or  proceeding  if such  person  acted in good  faith and in a
manner  he or  she  reasonably  believed  to be in  the  best  interests  of the
corporation  and with  respect  to any  criminal  action  or  proceeding  had no
reasonable  basis to conclude  that his or her conduct  was  unlawful.  A Nevada
corporation may also indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened,  pending,  or completed  action or suit by
reason of the fact that such person was an officer, director,  employee or agent
of the  corporation  if such person acted in good faith and in a manner which he
or she believed to be in the best interests of the corporation.

     To the fullest  extent  allowable  under NRS,  the  Company's  Articles and
Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify any person who was or is a party
or is threatened  to be made a party to any  threatened,  pending,  or completed
action or suit whether criminal,  civil,  administrative  or  investigative,  by
reason of the fact that such a person, his testator or intestate was an officer,
director, of the corporation, or a predecessor of the corporation.
