            MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                   CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                    





Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Net sales for the third quarter, the sixteen weeks ended March 5, 1994, were
$336,296,000, down $8,331,000, or 2.4%, from net sales of $344,627,000 in
fiscal 1993.  Year-to-date net sales were also lower at $874,892,000, a 1.7%
decline from 1993's net sales of $890,214,000.  These decreases were
attributable to a decline in cake volume, primarily resulting from the
Company's withdrawal from the California cake market.  Net sales from bread
products were stable, with a slight unit volume decline for the quarter offset
by higher selling prices.

Cost of product sold was 51.3% of net sales for the third quarter of fiscal
1994 compared to 51.1% for fiscal 1993, while year-to-date cost of products
sold was still slightly favorable at 50.6% compared to 50.7% in the prior
year.  For the quarter, higher flour and other ingredient costs were only
partially offset by production efficiencies and higher selling prices.  Year-
to-date ingredient costs were somewhat favorable which, along with
efficiencies and somewhat higher selling prices, produced a slight margin
improvement.

Selling, delivery and administrative expenses were down 1.2% to $142,845,000
for the third quarter, representing 42.5% of net sales, compared to
$144,606,000 and 42.0% of net sales in the prior year.  Year-to-date selling,
delivery and administrative expenses were $362,100,000, representing 41.4% of
net sales, up .7% from the prior year's $359,755,000, or 40.4% of net sales. 
These unfavorable variances as a percentage of net sales were primarily
attributable to higher labor and labor related costs, with the year-to-date
fiscal 1994 expense also reflecting higher delivery costs associated with a
transport drivers strike from the end of July through the end of September at
one of the bakeries.

Fiscal 1994's third quarter reflects $9,400,000 of other charges, which
includes costs incurred in a plant disposal of $6,700,000 and costs related to
environmental matters of $2,700,000, which reduced both quarterly and year-to-
date earnings by $5,687,000, net of tax, or $.28 per share.  Including the
charges, operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 1994 was $1,551,000,
compared to the prior year's $14,080,000.  Year-to-date operating income was
$36,041,000 compared to $54,380,000 in fiscal 1993.

Interest expense, which benefitted from somewhat lower interest rates related
to the renegotiation of the Company's bank credit agreement in November 1993,
as well as debt reduction efforts and generally lower market interest rates,
was down $877,000, or 16.4%, to $4,457,000 for the third quarter and
$2,364,000, or 17.4%, to $11,248,000 year-to-date.

The Company's year-to-date effective tax rate of 52.5% reflects the passage of
the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 during the first quarter of
fiscal 1994.  The increase in the corporate tax rate provided for in the Act
raised the year-to-date fiscal 1994 provision for income taxes by $1,057,000,
or $.05 per share.  $808,000 of this increase relates to the cumulative
adjustment of the Company's net deferred tax liability at May 29, 1993 and the
additional current taxes that were payable for the fiscal year ended May 29,
1993.  Non-deductible goodwill amortization was also responsible for the
higher effective rates in fiscal 1994 and 1993.

Net loss for the third quarter was $2,468,000, or $.12 per share, compared to
net income of $5,002,000, or $.24 per share, for the same period a year ago.

Year-to-date income before the cumulative effect of an accounting change was
$11,810,000, or $.58 per share, in fiscal 1994 compared to $23,276,000, or
$1.10 per share, a year ago.  The prior year's net income of $9,155,000, or
$.43 per share, included a one-time, noncash charge of $14,121,000, net of an
income tax benefit of $8,655,000, or $.67 per share, representing the
cumulative effect of adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
106, which required a change in accounting for postretirement health care
benefits.


Changes in Financial Condition
- ------------------------------

Cash generated by operating activities for the forty weeks ended March 5, 1994
was $39,135,000 compared to $43,630,000 a year ago, with the decrease
primarily relating to other charges incurred during the third quarter of
fiscal 1994.  These charges included cash expenses related to a bakery
disposition, the majority of which were paid by the end of the third quarter,
totalling $4,400,000, a noncash loss on the property disposition of
approximately $2,300,000, as well as an increase in environmental reserves of
$2,700,000, which are expected to be expended over the next several years. 
Cash generated by operations during fiscal 1994 was used to fund net capital
purchases of $18,574,000, to pay common stock dividends of $7,527,000 and to
repurchase common stock in the amount of $16,270,000 under the Company's share
repurchase program.

During November 1993, the Company renegotiated its bank credit agreement,
establishing a $210,000,000 bank revolving credit facility (the "new credit
facility") which provides for revolving loans and letters of credit.  The new
credit facility matures during fiscal 1999 and contains a graduated interest
rate structure, with slightly more favorable rates than the previous
agreement.  

As noted in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May
29, 1993, cash flows from ongoing operations should be sufficient to meet all
cash requirements in the current year.  Due to the debt renegotiation
discussed above, required principal reductions on debt for the remainder of
the year will be minimal.  Additional cash generated by operations will be
used to make voluntary prepayments on long-term debt or to repurchase
additional common shares.

1.  Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation
    ---------------------------------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals except for the
accounting change in fiscal 1993 and other charges in fiscal 1994) which, in
the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations and cash flows.  Results of operations for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a
full year.

4.  Other Charges
    -------------

Included in the $9,400,000 of other charges for the current quarter are costs
incurred in a plant disposal of $6,700,000 and charges related to
environmental matters of $2,700,000.


5.  Renegotiation of Bank Credit Agreement
    --------------------------------------

During November 1993, the Company renegotiated its bank credit agreement,
resulting in a $210,000,000 bank revolving credit facility (the "new credit
facility") with a slightly more favorable interest rate structure.  The new
credit facility, which provides for revolving loans and letters of credit,
matures during fiscal 1999.
