(1)      Basis of Presentation

         The  accompanying  financial  information  is  unaudited,  but,  in the
         opinion of  management,  reflects all  adjustments  (which include only
         normally  recurring   adjustments)  necessary  to  present  fairly  the
         Company's financial position,  operating results and cash flows for the
         periods  presented.   Certain  information  and  footnote   disclosures
         normally included in financial  statements  prepared in accordance with
         generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
         pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the  Securities and Exchange
         Commission.  The financial  information  should be read in  conjunction
         with the audited  financial  statements  and notes thereto for the year
         ended December 30, 1995 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
         10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  The results
         of operations for the thirteen week period ended March 30, 1996 are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(2)      Inventories

         The composition of inventories is as follows:

                                          March 30,                 Dec. 30,

                Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
                       Condition and Results of Operations


The following is  management's  discussion  and analysis of certain  significant
factors  which have  affected the  Company's  financial  position and  operating
results  during the periods  included in the  accompanying  condensed  financial
statements.

Results of Operations

Thirteen Weeks Ended March 30, 1996 Compared with Thirteen Weeks
Ended April 1, 1995

Net sales for the  thirteen  weeks  ended  March 30,  1996 were  $1,095,000,  an
increase of $71,000 from the sales level  realized for the thirteen  weeks ended
April 1,  1995.  In the 1996  period  sales of hard pack  Tofutti  decreased  by
$3,000,  while food  products  sales  increased  by  $74,000.  The gross  profit
remained  constant  despite the  increase in sales;  however,  the gross  profit
percentage for the current period  declined  compared to the previous period due
to an increase  in food  product  sales  versus  frozen  dessert  sales,  and an
increase in Cutie novelty  sales and a decrease in pint sales.  The gross profit
obtained on sales of Cuties is less than that on sales of pints, as is the gross
profit on food product sales compared to hard pack sales.

The Company  anticipates  a  continuing  increase in sales during the second and
third  quarters  of the  current  fiscal  year  due to the  introduction  of new
products  and expanded  distribution.  Such  increase is  dependent  upon market
acceptance of these products, for which no assurance can be given.

Selling  expenses  decreased to $160,000 for the current fiscal quarter compared
with  $172,000  for the  comparable  period  last  year.  This  decrease  is due
principally  to a reduction in payroll  expense.  Marketing and sales  promotion
expenses  increased  slightly to $42,000 from $37,000 in 1995 due to an increase
in radio  advertising  and the  purchase  of point of sale  material  during the
current quarter.

Research and development  costs,  which consist  principally of salary expenses,
remained constant at $42,000 for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 1996.

General and  administrative  expenses  increased  slightly  to $180,000  for the
current quarter compared with $173,000 for the comparable period in 1995.

Interest expense was unchanged at $3,000 for the current quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 30, 1996, the Company's  working  capital was $671,000,  an increase of
$9,000 from December 30, 1995. At the end of the thirteen week period,  accounts
receivable decreased by $155,000 from December 30, 1995.  Inventories  increased
by $30,000  reflecting  an  increase  in  finished  goods  inventory  at outside
warehouses,  while  prepaid  expenses  decreased  by  $3,000.  Other  assets and
deferred taxes were unchanged from December 30, 1995. Accounts payable increased
by $1,000, while accrued liabilities decreased by $140,000. The Company does not
have any material capital commitments.

As a result of the Company's inability to secure additional  financing or equity
capital, it has not had sufficient funds to fully implement the marketing of its
new products. This has hindered the Company in its efforts to increase the sales
of its  products.  The Company  continues  to fund its  operations  from current
resources.  Based on recent  sales  trends and the planned  introduction  of new
products  in the second and third  quarters of this year,  the Company  believes
that its revenues  will improve in 1996.  Management  believes that it will have
sufficient  financial  resources to continue its  operations  through the coming
year.
