These statements are condensed and, therefore, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999.

NOTE B - BUSINESS

1. The Company

Foodvision.com, Inc. has an Internet division that operates its dedicated vertical food portal devoted to the food and beverage industry and a restaurant division with three restaurants in the Atlanta metropolitan area and one restaurant in Ottawa, Canada. The Company was incorporated on April 4, 1989 in the State of Delaware.

2. Industry Overview

The Company believes the Internet is transforming the way that the world communicates, researches, organizes business operations, plans personal activities, transacts business, receives medical care, shops, and purchases goods and services. The Internet represents a fundamental change to established communication, distribution and management systems that have broad implications for individuals and businesses.

The Company believes sales by businesses to consumers over the Internet will increase from over $50 billion worldwide at the end of 1998 to approximately $1.3 trillion worldwide by the end of 2003. It is estimated that 70% of adult Internet users will make purchases online by the year 2002, as compared to an estimated 22% that did so in 1997. Factors driving growth in sales to both consumers and businesses over the Internet are (i) increasing familiarity with the Internet, (ii) broadening consumer acceptance of on-line shopping, (iii) increasing on-line distribution relationships by business, (iv) improving on-line network security, (v) improving hardware, software, and services accessible on-line, and (vi) expanding ability of computer processing speeds.

3. Strategy

The Company objective is to be the leading online destination for food and food-related commerce, content and community. The Company seeks to build customer trust and loyalty by maintaining its focus as a valuable food destination and by meeting and exceeding customer demands in all interactions. The Company believes that by empowering consumers and professionals to make informed decisions that yield results, the Company creates a sense of connection to its Internet site. The Company plans to continue to employ a virtual warehouse model based on strategic relationships with high quality product suppliers. Through these relationships, the Company obtains exclusive online access to high quality products. In return, the Company provides its suppliers with a branding opportunity and increased sales through an expanded customer base. The Company believes that these relationships will help the Company ensure product supply, minimize out of stock issues, and reduce the likelihood that its suppliers will switch to other online providers.

The Company capitalizes on its growing food and customer databases to enable targeted product, service and promotional offerings. The food database includes thousands of pages of original content and thousands of recipes. The customer database is comprised of detailed customer information, preferences and buying patterns. The Company believes that its databases will enable it to tailor the marketing of products and services to increase conversion rates of visitors into customers and encourage repeat purchases. In addition, the Company intends to use customer feedback and transactional history to expand its existing offerings and to pursue additional revenue opportunities.

NOTE C - DISCLOSURE REGARDING RISK FACTORS AND FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB includes forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Forward Looking Statements"). All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this report are Forward Looking Statements. In the normal course of its business, the Company, in an effort to help keep its shareholders and the public informed about the Company's operations, may from time to time issue certain statements, either in writing or orally, that contain or may contain Forward Looking Statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such Forward Looking Statements are reasonable; it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of such plans or strategies (past and possible future), acquisitions and projected or anticipated benefits from acquisitions made by or to be made by the Company, or projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, level of capital expenditures or other aspects of operating results. Forward-looking statements by the Company and its management are based on estimates, projections, beliefs and assumptions of management and are not guarantees of future performance. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement based on the occurrence of future events, the receipt of new information, or otherwise. All phases of the Company's operations are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks and other influences, many of which are outside the control of the Company and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect the results of the Company's proposed operations and whether Forward Looking Statements made by the Company ultimately prove to be accurate. Such important risk factors ("Important Risk Factors") and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations. All prior and subsequent written and oral Forward Looking Statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the Important Risk Factors described below that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations as set forth in any Forward Looking Statement made by or on behalf of the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Plan of Operation

During the first quarter of 2000, the Company adopted a plan is to phase out its Restaurant Division in order to concentrate on developing its Internet Division. The Company made the decision because the Restaurant Division required significant management attention, would require significant additional capital to achieve profitability, and would generate only a limited return on investment from the invested capital. Furthermore, the Company's there was minimal interest in investing in the Restaurant Division among the sources of capital available to the Company. On the other hand, the Company's Internet division has experienced significant growth in traffic and significant interest among investors. Thus, the Company determined that its capital and management time were best devoted to increasing the quality and visibility of its Internet division, and in exploiting the revenue-producing opportunities available in the Internet industry.

The Company's website, www.foodvision.com, was launched on November 1, 1999. The Company's economic model is to strive for high profit margins through override revenue on its e-commerce sites and the direct sales of the site's advertising and services capabilities. To achieve this model, the Company's co-branding partners provide product fulfillment. To date, the Company has achieved significant success developing a significant amount of food-related content and in generating traffic on the website, and has just begun to exploit the revenue-generating potential of that traffic. The Company's revenue model is designed to yield a lower revenue base, but with substantially lower administrative expenses, and correspondingly higher net profit margins. Management is of the opinion that valuation of Internet companies will move from a revenue-multiple base to the traditional P/E multiple approach over the next several years.

In 2000, the Company intends to implement a strategy to continually improve the quality of its website through additional co-branding agreements, and to sell its advertising and internet services through a national sales force. The Company plans to open corporate sales offices in Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, and to enter into E-agency agreements with independent contractors in those geographic areas not covered by the Company's own sales offices.

To phase out the Restaurant Division, the Company recently terminated operations at all three of its Roasters restaurants and is in the process of marketing the locations at two of the three sites. The Company has also retained restaurant brokers to dispose of its Dirty Bird Cafes and its Grandma Lee's restaurant and franchise rights. The Company plans to reinvest all proceeds from the sale of its Restaurant Division into its Internet Division.

Results of Operation

On a consolidated basis, revenues were $400,598 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, as compared to $447,950 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The Company's net loss from operations was ($1,185,692), or ($0.08) per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, as compared to ($253,872), or ($0.05) for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The Restaurant division contributed 100% of the Company's revenues and 11.5% ($136,630) of the Company's net loss. The Internet division did not contribute any revenues in 2000 and incurred direct web site development and marketing expenses of $958,527, and 81% of the Company's net loss.

A substantial reason for the poor operating results of the Restaurant Division was the Company's decision to dispose of the Restaurant Division, and the corresponding cessation of operations at its three Roasters restaurants. Earlier this year, the Company ceased all operations at its Roasters segment. The Marietta Roasters lease, located at 1325 Powers Ferry Road, Marietta, Georgia has been terminated and the landlord has taken possession of the property. The Company also ceased operations at its Toco Hills Roasters, located at 2916 N. Druid Hills Rd., Atlanta, Georgia, and its Alpharetta Roasters, located at 1100 Northpoint Drive, Alpharetta, Georgia, and is attempting to sell both locations; however, the Company does not expect realize any material net proceeds from the sale of either location.

The Internet Division's loss was the largely the result of quarterly payments due under its co-branding agreements with Yahoo! and CNN Interactive, and increased costs resulting from additional technical and marketing personnel hired for the Division. The Company expects that its operating losses will decrease in future periods as the Company begins to receive revenues from third parties under marketing agreements, and as the Company's inhouse sales force begins to generate revenues.

Liquidity & Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2000, the Company had a negative cash balance of ($138,158), and had negative working capital of ($838,080), as compared to negative working capital of ($566,354) as of December 31, 1999. The Company's negative working capital is the result of significant losses incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 at both its Restaurant Division and its Internet Division. The Company largely financed its losses during the quarter from the sale of $1,204,225 in common stock in private placements.

The Company will need to raise additional capital through fiscal 2000 to fund its business plan, and continues to explore investment alternatives through its existing shareholders and investment firms. In addition, the Company has engaged a broker to sale its Dirty Bird Café restaurants and format, and plans to utilize the net proceeds of that sale for its Internet Division.

In addition, on February 29, 2000, the Company restated the subscription agreement with Complete Development International, Inc. dated November 8, 1999, for the private placement of 750,000 shares of Series A preferred stock at $10.00 per share. Under the agreement, each of share of preferred stock will be convertible into ten shares of common stock. If the price of the Company's common stock is below $1.00 per share at the time of conversion, then the conversion price will equal the previous day's closing price less 20% subject to a minimum conversion price of $0.50 per share. The preferred stock will yield a cumulative annual dividend of 8%, payable quarterly. The Company currently anticipates receiving the funding under this agreement in the second quarter of 2000.

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise adequate capital on terms favorable to existing shareholders. In the event the Company cannot raise the necessary capital to implement its business plan, such failure could have a material adverse effect on the Company, and could force the Company to reduce or curtail operations until adequate funding can be arranged.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company's disclosure of pending legal proceedings contained in Item 3 of its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999 is hereby incorporated by reference. The following is a summary of developments in legal proceedings to which the Company is a party since the filing of the Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1999.

On March 7, 2000, CF Southpark, L.P. filed suit in the State Court of Fulton County, Case No. 000VS002653F, against the Company for default on its lease obligation for restaurant space in Shannon Mall, located in Atlanta, Georgia. The Company has filed an answer and a motion to dismiss the complaint.

On April 20, 2000, Cousins Properties, Inc. filed suit in the State Court of Fulton County, Case No. 00DD000077G, against Restaurant North Atlanta, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company. The suit seeks to evict the subsidiary from certain real property in Alpharetta, Georgia which the subsidiary operated a Roasters restaurant, and to recover a judgment against the subsidiary in the amount of $43,186, plus additional rent, interest and attorney's fees. Prior to the filing of the suit, the subsidiary terminated operations at the restaurant, as well as at its other operations. Because the subsidiary no longer conducted operations or had unencumbered assets, the subsidiary did not file an answer in the suit, and therefore a default judgment will likely be entered against the subsidiary for the full amount claimed in the suit.

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.
