                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                September 2, 1995

    month period then ended are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all
    adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements
    have been included.  Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring 
    items.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
        CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working  capital  at  the  end  of  the  First  Quarter was  $2.2  million.
Receivables and inventories are at the same levels as  last year,  with
prepaid expenses slightly higher due  to  income tax benefits  from the
quarter's operations.  Cash remains at an acceptable level.

During the quarter $200,000 was spent on capital improvements and $300,000
was advanced to the joint venture in Holland.  Both were funded through
short-term debt with the intention of replacing the borrowings with longer-
term debt in the future.  The company is in compliance with all restrictive
covenants imposed by its lender.

Concerning the joint venture bakery in Holland,  all site work is done,
foundations poured and framework erected.  The plant is expected to be in
operation in early 1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Quarter Ended September 2, 1995 Compared to
   Quarter Ended Auqust 27, 1994

Revenues for the First Quarter were $6.6 million, comparable to last year.
Cost of goods sold increased from 78.9% of sales last year to 85.5% this
year.  The increase in costs is attributable to both commodity costs and
product mix.   Commodity cost increases this year over last year amounted
to $180,000 for the quarter.  Flour costs this summer have increased 29%
and are anticipated to remain high until June, 1996.  In addition packaging
costs,  specifically cardboard packaging,  have increased 50 - 60% in the
last two years.  Due to competitive pressures, these cost increases were
absorbed.  After months of absorbing these costs, a general price increase
was implemented in September, 1995 to offset most of the cost increases.
It is also anticipated that cardboard costs may begin to decline in early
1996.

The mix of products sold during the quarter also affected cost of goods.
Last year the company was packing a product for a national customer that
carried high gross margins.  That product is no longer packed, the volume
has been replaced, but with products producing $275,000 less margin.

In an ongoing effort to reduce costs, selling, general and administrative
expenses were reduced by $125,000.

The overall effect of margin decreases, offset by some cost decreases, is
a loss for the quarter of $223,000 compared to a loss last year of $27,000.
