                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
               FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1999 AND 1998
                                   (Unaudited)


1.       Basis of presentation:

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
         accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
         financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and
         Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
         the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
         principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
         management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
         considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
         Operating results for the nine months ended October 31, 1999 are not
         necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
         ended January 31, 2000. The unaudited financial statements should be
         read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto
         included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
         January 31, 1999.

2.       Description of business and significant account policies:

         The Company is a development stage company, having not yet completed
         the process of manufacturing and marketing its sole product, a vending
         machine which will cook and dispense French fries. The Company has
         incurred research and development costs from inception to October 31,
         1999 totaling $2,260,314. The Company produced 10 preproduction
         machines for demonstration and sales purposes. These machines have a
         book value of $7,000 each. The Company is currently in the process of
         completing its first 25 machines, which are included in inventory at
         $125,000.00. The difference between the anticipated selling price and
         the cost to build the first 25 machines has been charged to research,
         machine and product development costs. The Company had no revenues from
         operations since inception and its ability to continue as a going
         concern is dependent on the continuation of equity financing to fund
         the expenses relating to successfully manufacturing and marketing the
         vending machine.

3.       Issuance of common stock:

         The Company issued an aggregate of 6,929,405 shares during the nine
         months ended October 31, 1999. 3,000,000 shares were sold in private
         placements by the Company, 3,179,405 shares were issued in payment of
         services, 250,000 shares were issued for litigation settlement, and
         500,000 shares were issued for repurchase of distributorships.

         After the return to treasury of a total 287,500 shares, an aggregate of
         8,460,669 shares were issued during the nine months ended October 31,
         1998. The following shares were issued during the nine months:
         1,825,000 shares were sold in private placements by the Company;
         5,628,854 shares were issued pursuant to the terms of the Company's
         convertible note financing (this figure includes shares issued for
         interest on the notes); 756,815 shares were issued in payment of
         services; and 250,000 shares were issued as consideration for the
         re-acquisition of an existing distributorship.

4.       April 1998 financing:

         In April 1998, the Company entered into an agreement to receive
         $1,500,000 in proceeds from the sale of restricted stock to a U.S.
         corporation. The Company issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock as
         consideration for the investment. The Company also issued warrants to
         purchase 1,500,000 post-split shares of common stock at an exercise
         price of $1.90; the warrants expire April 12, 2001. The Company also
         issued 150,000 post-split shares of restricted stock as a commission on
         the transaction. The Company and the investor have entered into an
         escrow agreement for this transaction and all of the shares were issued
         into escrow, pending funding. As of October 31, 1999, $1,050,000 of the
         $1,500,000 in proceeds has been received by the Company and 2,100,000
         of the 3,000,000 shares of restricted common stock held in escrow have
         been released to the investor. The balance of funds due are anticipated
         to be received by January 31, 2000.

         ITEM 2. PLAN OF OPERATION

         General

         The Company is a development-stage company having not yet completed the
         exercise of manufacturing, marketing and selling its sole product, a
         vending machine which will cook and dispense French fries (the
         "Machine"). The Company has tested the Machine both internally and on
         various beta locations since December of 1995. During the period ending
         October 31, 1999, the Company entered into the production stage of its
         lifecycle, having spent the latter half of fiscal 1998 preparing for
         commercial manufacturing through the process of pre-production tooling
         and completion of final production design work.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Since its inception, the Company has had virtually no revenues from
         operations and has relied almost exclusively on shareholder loans,
         limited distribution deposits and sale of securities to raise working
         capital to fund operations. At October 31, 1999 the Company had
         approximately $100,102 in cash.

         While management currently anticipates that the April 1998 financing
         will allow it to complete the Company's initial production run of
         machines, no assurances can be given that the Company will be able to
         do so. Further, the Company will need to secure additional funds to
         allow it to enter into its second production run of machines, in line
         with management's current plan of operation. No assurances can be given
         that the Company will be able to secure adequate financing from any
         source to pursue its current plan of operation, to meet its obligations
         or to expand its marketing efforts over the next 12 months. Based upon
         its past history, management believes that it may be able to obtain
         funding in such manner but is unable to predict with any certainty the
         amount and terms thereof. If the Company is unable to obtain needed
         funds, it could be forced to curtail or cease its activities.

         The Company has, in the past, issued shares of common stock and
         warrants to purchase common stock to various parties as payment for
         services rendered. The Company intends to continue this practice.

         ITEM 3. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

         When used in this report and in future filings by the Company with the
         Commission, in the Registrant's press releases or other public or
         stockholder communications, and in oral statements made with the
         approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases "will
         likely result," "are expected to," "will continue," "is anticipated,"
         "estimate," "project" or similar expressions are intended to identify
         "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
         Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject
         to certain risks and uncertainties, including the Company's liquidity
         constraints, potential increases in manufacturing costs and delays,
         pending litigation, availability of raw materials, competition, demand
         for the Machine and other proprietary products, and delays in the
         distribution process that could cause actual results to differ
         materially from those presently anticipated or projected. The Company
         wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such
         forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The
         Company wishes to advise readers that actual


                                       8
<PAGE>

         results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or
         statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current
         statements.

         The Company does not undertake - and specifically, declines any
         obligation - to publicly release the result of any revisions which may
         be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of
         anticipated or unanticipated events.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

         ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         On August 17, 1998, California Food and Vending, Inc. ("CFV") filed a
         multi-count law suit in the United States District Court for the
         Central District of California alleging that Tasty Fries and its Chief
         Executive Officer, Edward C. Kelly had not complied with the parties
         prior settlement agreement by failing to sell distributorships,
         misrepresenting the Company's financial condition at the time of the
         settlement and completing a reverse split of the Company's stock after
         the settlement reducing the number of CFV's options to purchase the
         Company's stock and increasing the cost of the options. Tasty Fries
         countersued California Food & Vending charging that it had breached its
         fiduciary responsibility as Tasty Fries' distributor by failing to
         market and promote the TFRY French fry vending machine and by
         unsuccessfully attempting to introduce its own machine.

         On July 12, 1999, the Company and CFV settled the case. Tasty Fries
         regained its State of California distributorship which was owned by
         California Food & Vending. CFV gave up its rights to share equally in
         the first $4,000,000 of international and domestic distributorship fees
         to be paid to Tasty Fries when it commences the commercial delivery of
         its machines and twenty five percent of all such fees paid to Tasty
         Fries after the first $4,000,000. Tasty Fries received a 10% reduction
         from $500 per machine to $450 per machine with respect to the royalty
         to be paid to CFV on the cost of the machines. CFV received 250,000
         shares of the Company's common stock and $1,000,000.

         The litigation has been dismissed.

         On August 28, 1996, the Company, Edward C. Kelly and Premier Design,
         Ltd., were added as defendants to a civil lawsuit in the Riverside
         County Branch of the Superior Court of the State of California brought
         by Prize Fries, Inc., William Bartfield and Larry Wirth. The suit also
         named as defendants approximately 25 other parties, all allegedly
         involved, in some manner, in the pursuit of the French fry vending
         machine concept and/or business. The case was removed to Federal Court.
         The Company successfully moved for dismissal of the claim on behalf of
         itself and Mr. Kelly; the case was dismissed on June 2, 1997. The case,
         which was removed to Federal Court, has now been remanded by the
         Federal Court to the State Court for disposition where it will be
         vigorously contested.
