INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”) and Food New Media Group, Inc. (“FNM”) (collectively, the “Company, or “IVFH”),  have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  FNM is currently inactive. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for a complete financial statement presentation. U.S. accounting principles also contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

Acquisition and Corporate Restructure

We were initially formed in September 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From September 1979 through February 2004, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. In February 2003 we changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd.

On January 26, 2004, through a share exchange, the shareholders of Food Innovations, Inc. (‘FII”) converted 10,000 shares (post-reverse split) of FII common stock outstanding into 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH. On January 29, 2004, in a transaction known as a reverse acquisition, the shareholders of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (“IVFH”) exchanged 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH for 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of Fiber Application Systems (formerly known as Alpha Solarco) (“Fiber”), a publicly-traded company.   The shareholders of IVFH thus assumed control of Fiber, and Fiber changed its name to IVFH.  The 25,000,000 shares (post-reverse split) of IVFH are shown on the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2003 as shares outstanding.  These shares are shown at their par value of $2,500 as a decrease of additional paid-in capital at the acquisition date of January 29, 2004.  There were 157,037 shares (post-reverse split) outstanding in Fiber at the time of the reverse acquisition; the par value of these shares, or $16, was transferred from additional paid-in capital at the time of the reverse acquisition.
 
2. NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Business Activity
 
FII is in the business of providing premium white tablecloth restaurants with the freshest origin-specific perishables and specialty products direct from its network of vendors to the end users (restaurants, hotels, country clubs, national chain accounts, casinos, and catering houses) within 24-72 hours, except as stated hereafter, eliminating all wholesalers and distributors. We currently sell the majority of our products through a distributor relationship with Next Day Gourmet, L.P., a subsidiary of US Foodservice, Inc. (“USF”), a $20 Billion broadline distributor.

2. NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles pursuant to Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes as contained in form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation of the interim periods presented. The results of the operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior periods' data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported income.
 
Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has reported a net loss of $416,630   and $3,335,282  for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The Company also  had an accumulated deficit of $7,360,328   and a working capital deficiency of $6,553,836   as of September 30, 2008.

The Company cannot be certain that anticipated revenues from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its ongoing capital requirements. Management's belief is based on the Company's operating plan, which in turn is based on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. If the Company's financial resources are insufficient the Company may require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan and continue as a going concern. The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity or debt, or be in another form. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. In any of these events, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for growth, repay its debt obligations as they become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Management plans to take the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue as a going concern. Management intends to raise financing through the sale of its stock or debt instruments in private placements to individual investors. Management may raise funds in the public markets, though there currently are no plans to do so. Management believes that with this financing, the Company will be able to generate additional revenues that will allow the Company to continue as a going concern. The company expects this to be accomplished by hiring additional personnel and focusing sales and marketing efforts on the distribution of product through key marketing channels currently being developed by the Company. The Company also intends to pursue the acquisition of certain strategic industry partners where appropriate.

2. NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of the product from the vendor.  Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.

For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting  Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104,  "Revenue  Recognition,"  which superseded SAB No. 101, "Revenue  Recognition in Financial  Statements." SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery as occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and  (4) collectability is reasonably assured.  Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts.  Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.  The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.  SAB No. 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-21,  "Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements."  EITF No. 00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.  The effect of implementing EITF No. 00-21 on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations was not significant. This issue requires determination of whether an arrangement involving more than one deliverable contains more than one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be measured and allocated to the separate units of accounting.  EITF No.  00-21 became effective for revenue arrangements entered into in periods beginning after September 15, 2003.  For revenue arrangements occurring on or after August 1, 2003, the Company revised its revenue recognition.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method.  Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.  They are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  The Company is required to adjust its deferred tax liabilities in the period when tax rates or the provisions of the income tax laws change.  Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the  Company's  financial  instruments, which include accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate fair value at September 30, 2008.
 
Inventories
 
The Company does not currently maintain any material amount of inventory.

Stock-Based Compensation

On January 1, 2006 the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123 (R), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. SFAS 123 (R) supersedes the company's previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" for the periods beginning in fiscal 2006.

The company  adopted  SFAS 123(R) using the  modified  prospective  transition method,  which required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. The company's Consolidated  Financial  Statements as of and for the twelve months ended September 30, 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the company's Consolidated Financial Statements  for the prior periods have not been restated to reflect,  and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123 (R). Stock based compensation  expense recognized under SFAS 123(R) for the three and nine months  ended September 30, 2008 was $0.

Stock-based compensation  expense  recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based  payment awards that is ultimately  expected to vest during the period.

5.  LOAN RECEIVABLE

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company renegotiated the terms of its loan receivable from  Pasta Italiana, Inc. (“Pasta”)  .  The revised  agreement (the “Pasta Settlement Agreement”) calls for  Pasta to pay to the Company $165,000 of the principal amount of the note .  Pasta is to  make 36  monthly payments in the amount of $4,500 beginning in September, 2008  and a final payment of $3,000  The first of these 36 payments was received by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2008.  Upon execution of the agreement, Pasta is also to deliver to the Company 10% of its fully diluted common stock.  For purposes of the Pasta Settlement Agreement, this stock is deemed to have a value of $200,000 (the “Pasta Stock Deemed Value”); this stock is valued at $0 in the Company’s financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2008.    The Company recorded an impairment charge in the amount of $127,147 during the three months ended September 30, 2008, representing the difference between the net book value of the Pasta receivable prior to the Pasta Settlement Agreement and the amount of the new note receivable negotiated in the Pasta Settlement Agreement.

Interest will accrue at a rate of 8% on the unpaid portion of the $165,000.   The accrued interest is to be paid semi-annually in shares of common stock of Pasta (the “Pasta Interest Shares”)     at a price per share equivalent to the Pasta Stock Deemed Value.  The Pasta Interest Shares are valued at $0 in the financial statements of the Company, and no interest income is recorded by the Company for these shares during  the three months ended September 30, 2008.

The Company is to issue to two principal shareholders of Pasta Italiana 1,500,000 shares each of common stock of the Company. These shares vest at a rate of 1,000,000 per year, with the first 1,000,000 vesting  on September 1, 2009, the next 1,000,000  vesting on September  1, 2010, and the remaining 1,000,000  vesting on September 1, 2011.  As of September 30, 2008 these shares have not been issued and have not been recorded on the financial statements of the Company.  The Company will record the issuance of these shares as a charge to additional paid-in capital upon issuance, and as a charge to operations for the fair market value of these shares upon each of the vesting dates.

The Company is also required to issue 1,000,000 warrants to purchase additional shares of common stock, 500,000 each, to two of the officers of Pasta.  These warrants are  convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of  $0.012 per share, are exercisable for 5 years, and vest 36 months from the date of the settlement (September 15, 2011) or the date which all of the cash payments of the $165,000 have been made.  The Company will charge the fair value of these warrants to operations on the date of vesting, or September 15, 2011.

Pasta is also required to pay an additional $15,000 for the Company’s legal fees, this payment is due when the last payment is made on the $165,000 note receivable.
A  principal payment in the amount of  $4,500 was received by the Company in September 2008, and the remaining net balance due the Company at September 30, 2008 was $160,500.  $49,500 of this amount appears as a current asset, and the balance, or $111,000, appears as a long-term asset in the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2008.

8. NOTES PAYABLE AND NOTES PAYABLE TO RELATED PARTIES (Continued)

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company has agreed to make the $75,000 note outstanding to Michael Ferrone, a related party, a convertible note at a rate of $0.005 per share, as consideration for extending the maturity date of the note payable from February 2, 2005 to December 31, 2009.  The Company calculated the fair value of this beneficial conversion feature as $75,000, and charged this amount to discount on the debt. Because this debt is immediately convertible at the option of the lender, the Company charged the entire amount of this discount, or $75,000, to interest expense during the three months ended September 30. 20008.

The renegotiation of the terms of this note was considered a debt extinguishment, and issuance of new debt.  The Company determined that the value given up for the new debt (the conversion feature) was equal to the value obtained (the extension of the note) and concluded that there was no gain or loss on this debt extinguishment.

Notes payable and notes payable to related parties at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, consisted of the following:

On March 12, 2008, we executed amendments to restructure an aggregate of $150,000 of senior secured notes which were due February 7, 2007. The amendments extended the due date of the notes to March 4, 2009 and were in consideration of our issuance of an aggregate of: 30 million Class A warrants exercisable at $0.0115 per share, 7.5 million Class B warrants exercisable at $0.011 per share, and 3 million Class C warrants exercisable at $0.005 per share.  All of these warrants have essentially similar terms to the warrants we issued to such investors on February 24, 2005, except that the underlying common stock does not have registration rights.    
 
On March 12, 2008, we also extended, to March 4, 2009, the due date of an additional $10,000 note that was due November 19, 2006 in consideration of adding a convertibility feature, at a conversion price of $0.005 per share, to the note and the issuance of 2 million Class A warrants exercisable at $0.0115 per share, 500,000 Class B warrants exercisable at $0.011 per share, and 200,000 Class C warrants exercisable at $0.005 per share.  All of these warrants have essentially similar terms to the warrants we issued to such investors on February 24, 2005, except that the underlying common stock does not have registration rights.    
  
Accounting for Conversion Options Embedded in Convertible Notes and Convertible Interest

The Company has certain convertible notes payable which contain embedded beneficial conversion features.  Through August 2005, the beneficial conversion features of these convertible notes were accounted for by the equity method, whereby the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion features were considered discounts to the notes. These discounts were immediately amortized to interest expense. During September 2005, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and issuable exceeded the number of shares of common stock the Company had authorized, and this triggered a change in the manner in which the Company accounts for these  beneficial conversion features.  In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (“SFAS 133”), the debt features provision contained in the terms governing the Notes are not clearly and closely related to the characteristics of the Notes.  Accordingly, the features qualified as embedded derivative instruments at September 30, 2005 and because they do not qualify for any scope exception within SFAS 133, they were required by SFAS 133 to be accounting for separately from the debt instrument and recorded as derivative financial instruments.  In September 2005, the Company valued the  beneficial conversion features of its notes payable using the Black-Scholes valuation method, and arrived at an aggregate value of  $12,528,662.  Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force Issue  00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s  Own Stock” (“EITF 00-19”) “If a contract is reclassified from permanent  or temporary equity to an asset or a liability, the change in fair value of the contract during the period the contract was classified as equity should be accounted for as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.”  Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company charged the amount of $12,445,576 to stockholders’ equity.  $5,665,290 of this amount was charged to additional paid-in capital, which brought the balance of additional paid-in capital to $0. The remainder, or $6,780,286, was charged to accumulated deficit.  During subsequent periods,  the conversion option liability will be revalued, and any change in value charged to operations.  At September 30, 2008, the conversion option liability was valued at $1,672,936.  The revaluation resulted in a (gain) loss during the  three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,  of $(225,959)  and $955,511 , respectively. 

The Company valued these embedded conversion options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Accounting for Warrants and Freestanding Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for the issuance of common stock purchase warrants and other freestanding derivative financial instruments in accordance with the provisions of EITF 00-19.  Based on the provisions of EITF 00-19, the Company classifies, as equity, any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).  The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contract that (i) require net-cash or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement in shares (physical or net-share settlement).

INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
(Unaudited)

10. EQUITY (Continued)

The fair value of these warrants is determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Through August 2005, these warrants were accounted for by the equity method, whereby the fair value of the warrants was charged to additional paid-in capital. During September, 2005, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and issuable exceeded the number of shares of common stock the Company had authorized, and this triggered a change in the manner in which the Company accounts for these  warrants and the Company began to account for these warrants utilizing the liability method.    Pursuant to EITF 00-19,  “If a contract is reclassified from permanent  or temporary equity to an asset or a liability, the change in fair value of the contract during the period the contract was classified as equity should be accounted for as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.”  Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company charged the amount of  $10,374,536 to stockholders’ equity.    At the same time, the Company changed the way in which it accounts for the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes payable (see note 8).

The accounting guidance shows that the warrants and options which are a derivative liability should be revalued  each reporting period. The recorded value of such warrants can fluctuate significantly based on fluctuations in the market value of the underlying securities of the issuer of the warrants and options, as well as in the volatility of the stock price during the term used for observation and the term remaining for warrants and options.  During the three and nine  months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recognized a loss  of $268,724 and $1,029,131, respectively, for the increase in the fair value of the warrant liability and recorded this gain in operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The fair value of these instruments was estimated at September 30, 2008, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate: 3.50%; expected dividend yield: 0%; expected option life: 5 years; and volatility: 255.74%.
 
Insufficient Authorized but Unissued Shares of Common Stock

The Company has a potential obligation to issue  724,807,080  shares of common stock upon the conversion of convertible notes and accrued interest, warrants and penalty shares issuable at September 30, 2008.  The Company  had 181,787,638 shares of common stock outstanding at September 30, 2008 and  500,000,000 shares of common stock authorized at September 30, 2008.  The Company has potentially  406,594,718 exceeded its shares authorized by at September 30, 2008.
 
11. PENALTY FOR LATE REGISTRATION OF SHARES

At September 30, 2008, the Company had a liability in the amount of $771,956 for the issuance of 110,280,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a penalty calculation with regard to the late registration of shares underlying convertible  notes payable.  The Company reported a (gain) loss of $(110,280) and $152,040 during the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively; and  a  loss of $441,120 and $113,576 during the  nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively,  representing the change in the fair value of these shares during the period.  
 
12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 17, 2008, we entered into a three-year lease with Grand Cypress Communities, Inc. for new premises consisting of 4,000 square feet in Naples, Florida.  The commencement date of the lease is January 1, 2009.  The annual rent and fees under the lease is approximately $54,000.  The lease provides for a buyout option at the end of the lease with credit towards the purchase price received for the rental payments made during the term of the lease

Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis section discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue  recognition, accrued  expenses, financing  operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There are no significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements.

Background

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the company and related notes included elsewhere in this Report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. This discussion may contain forward looking-statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward looking-statements discussed in this report. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere in the report and our other public filings.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2007

Revenue

Revenue increased by $235,296 or  approximately 15%, to $1,791,302 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 from $1,556,006 during  the prior year. Sales decreases in  Seafoods, Meat and Game and Produce were offset by sales increases in Poultry, Cheese, and Specialty lines.  Sales returns and allowances in 2008 were $2,004 lower than in the comparable quarter in 2007.

Cost of goods sold
 
Cost of goods sold was $1,439,641 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $240,660 or approximately 20% compared to cost of goods sold of $1,198,981 for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in the cost of good sold was due to increased shipping costs due to the introduction of new shipping programs.   Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was approximately 20%, compared to gross profit margin of approximately 23% for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The decrease in the gross margin was due to increased freight costs from fuel surcharges which were not fully passed on to our customers, and the introduction of new saver shipping programs which increased our costs. 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were essentially unchanged at $449,556 for the three months ended  September 30, 2008 compared to $449,442 for the three months ended September 30, 2007.   The primary components of selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 were payroll and related costs of $227,883;  consulting and professional fees of $121,287; facilities costs of $39,297; insurance costs of $27,760;   amortization and depreciation of $9,741; software expense of $8,423; travel and entertainment of $7,363; public relations expenses of $3,002;  and bank fees of $1,094.

Penalty for Late Registration of Shares

The Company has accrued a liability for failure to register certain shares issuable.  At September 30, 2008, there were a total of 110,280,000 shares  issuable pursuant to this penalty. This penalty has been fully accrued, and no additional accrual was made during the three months ended September 30, 2008. The amount of $13,272 was accrued during the three months ended September 30, 2007.  During the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company also marked to market the value of these 110,280,000 shares. This resulted in a (gain) of ($110,280) and a loss of $152,040, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Change in Fair value of Warrant Liability

At  September 30, 2008, the Company had an accrued  liability of $1,864,023 representing the fair value of  the warrants issued with the convertible notes.  The Company recorded a loss of  $268,724 and $265,338, during the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively,  representing the change in the fair value of these warrants.

 
24


Change in Fair value of the Conversion Option Liability

At September 30, 2008, the Company had an accrued liability of $1,672,936  representing the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes payable.  The Company recorded a (gain) of  ($195,963) and a loss of $284,825 , during the three months ended September  30, 2008 and 2007, respectively,  representing the change in the fair value of these options.

Interest (Income) expense, net

Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $148,572, or approximately 184%, from $80,535 during the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $229,107 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This increase was attributable primarily to the new issuances of convertible notes payable for services performed, and to the amortization of the discount associated with the beneficial conversion features of these  notes.

Impairment of Investment in Pasta Italiana

During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company renegotiated the terms of its loan receivable from  Pasta Italiana, Inc. (“Pasta”) ..  The revised  agreement (the “Pasta Settlement Agreement”) calls for  Pasta to pay to the Company $165,000 of the principal amount of the note.  Pasta is to  make 36  monthly payments in the amount of $4,500 beginning in September, 2008  and a final payment of $3,000  The first of these 36 payments was received by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2008.  Upon execution of the agreement, Pasta is also to deliver to the Company 10% of its fully diluted common stock.  For purposes of the Pasta Settlement Agreement, this stock is deemed to have a value of $200,000 (the “Pasta Stock Deemed Value”); this stock is valued at $0 in the Company’s financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2008.    The Company recorded an impairment charge in the amount of $127,147 during the three months ended September 30, 2008, representing the difference between the net book value of the Pasta receivable prior to the Pasta Settlement Agreement and the amount of the new note receivable negotiated in the Pasta Settlement Agreement.  There was no such charge during the three months period ended September 30, 2007.

Net Loss

For the reasons stated above, net (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was ($416,630), a decrease of $471,797  or approximately 53% compared to a net (loss) of ($888,427), during the three months ended September 30, 2007. It is important to  note that these losses are substantially the result of the application of various accounting rules as they apply to the Company, and that many of the charges made by the Company to value certain liabilities  have no impact on our cash flows.
 
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007

Revenue

Revenue increased by $216,120 or approximately 4%, to $5,076,534 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 from $4,860,414 from the prior year. Sales decreases in seafood, meat and game, and produce were offset by sales increases in Produce, Cheese, and Specialty lines.  Sales returns and allowances were $4,229 lower than in the comparable quarter in 2007.

Cost of goods sold
 
Cost of goods sold was $4,019,275 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $414,182 or approximately 12% compared to cost of goods sold of $3,605,093 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The increase in the cost of revenue was due to the introduction of our 3 day saver shipping program which lowered our margin on freight costs. Gross profit margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was approximately 21%, compared to gross profit margin of approximately 26% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The decrease in the gross margin was due to increased freight costs from fuel surcharges which were not fuly passed on to our customers and the introduction of new saver shipping programs which increased our costs. 
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $37,698 , or approximately 3%, to $1,314,904 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $1,277,206 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The increase was as a result of increased professional fees and legal fees . The primary components of selling, general, and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were payroll and related costs of $663,664; consulting and professional fees of $348,290;  facilities costs of $120,278; insurance costs of $76,089;  amortization and depreciation of $30,138; travel and entertainment of $21,538; software expense of $19,364; public relations expense of $13,390; and bank fees of $6,184.

Penalty for Late Registration of Shares

The Company has accrued a liability for failure to register certain shares issuable.  At September 30, 2008, there were a total of 110,280,000 shares  issuable pursuant to this penalty. This penalty has been fully accrued, and no additional accrual was made during the nine months ended  September 30, 2008. The amount of $64,984 was accrued during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company also marked to market the value of these 110,280,000 shares. This resulted in a  loss of $441,120 and  $113,576, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007,.

Change in Fair value of Warrant Liability

At  September 30, 2008, the Company had an accrued  liability of $1,864,023 representing the fair value of  the warrants issued with the convertible notes.  The Company recorded a loss of  $1,029,131 and  $237,585, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 representing the change in the fair value of these warrants.

Change in Fair value of the Conversion Option Liability

At September 30, 2008, the Company had an accrued liability of $1,672,936  representing the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes payable.  The Company recorded a loss of  $985,507  and $377,569, respectively,  during the nine months  ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 representing the change in the fair value of these options.
  
Interest (Income) expense, net

Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by $256,064 , or approximately 107%, from $238,668 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to $494,732  for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This increase was attributable primarily to the new issuances of convertible notes payable for services performed, and to the amortization of the discount associated with the beneficial conversion features of these  notes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company renegotiated the terms of its loan receivable from  Pasta Italiana, Inc. (“Pasta”)  .  The revised  agreement (the “Pasta Settlement Agreement”) calls for  Pasta to pay to the Company $165,000 of the principal amount of the note .  Pasta is to  make 36  monthly payments in the amount of $4,500 beginning in September, 2008  and a final payment of $3,000  The first of these 36 payments was received by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2008.  Upon execution of the agreement, Pasta is also to deliver to the Company 10% of its fully diluted common stock.  For purposes of the Pasta Settlement Agreement, this stock is deemed to have a value of $200,000 (the “Pasta Stock Deemed Value”); this stock is valued at $0 in the Company’s financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2008.    The Company recorded an impairment charge in the amount of $127,147 during the three months ended September 30, 2008, representing the difference between the net book value of the Pasta receivable prior to the Pasta Settlement Agreement and the amount of the new note receivable negotiated in the Pasta Settlement Agreement.
 
Net Loss

For the reasons stated above, net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $3,335,282, an increase of $2,281,015  or approximately 216% compared to a net loss of $1,054,267, during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. It is important to  note that these losses are substantially the result of the application of various accounting rules as they apply to the Company, and that many of the charges made by the Company to value certain liabilities  have no impact on our cash flows.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2008, the Company had cash overdraft of $3,372,  which represents a decrease in cash in the amount of $77,982 from December 31, 2007. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, cash used by operating activities was $74,499, consisting primarily of the net loss of $3,335,282  offset by depreciation and amortization of $30,138, amortization of the discount on notes payable and accrued interest of $277,307; reserve for loan receivable of $127,147; reserve for bad debt of $2,500; Impairment of investment in Pasta Italiana of $127,147; change in fair value of warrant liability of $1,029,135; change in fair value of conversion option liability of $985,507;  loss from  marking to market shares issuable due to penalty on late registration of shares of $441,116; and changes in the components of working capital in the net amount of $367,933. Cash provided by investing activities was $121 , consisting of principal payments received on a loan in the amount of $4,500 offset by the purchase of property and equipment in the amount of $4,379.  Cash used by financing activities was $3,604, consisting of principal payments on notes payable.
 
Historically, our primary cash requirements have been used to fund the cost of operations, with additional funds having been used in promotion and advertising and in connection with the exploration of new business lines. Under current operating plans and assumptions, management believes that projected cash flows from operations and available cash resources may be insufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. As we seek to increase our sales of perishables, as well as identify new and other consumer oriented products and services, we may use existing cash reserves, long-term financing, or other means to finance such diversification.

Critical Accounting Policy and Accounting Estimate Discussion

In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "Commission") Release Nos. 33-8040; 34-45149; and FR-60 issued in December 2001, referencing the Commission's statement "regarding the selection and disclosure by public companies of critical accounting policies and practices", we have set forth in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements what we believe to be the most pervasive accounting policies and estimates that could have a material effect on our results of operations and cash flows if general business conditions or individual customer financial circumstances change in an adverse way relative to the policies and estimates used in the attached financial statements or in any "forward looking" statements contained herein.
 
The Company’s cash on hand may be insufficient to fund its planned operating needs. We continue to seek funding for working capital requirements, necessary equipment purchases, marketing costs, and other operations for the next year and foreseeable future by raising capital through the sale of equity and/or debt securities, issuing common stock in lieu of cash for services and by advances from shareholders.

We expect that any sale of additional equity securities or convertible debt will result in additional dilution to our stockholders. The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to generate adequate funds from operations, that funds will be available to us from debt or equity financing, or that if available, the company will be able to obtain such funds on favorable terms and conditions. If the company cannot secure additional funds it may have to reduce its operations to be able to continue as a going concern.  The Company currently has no definitive arrangements with respect to additional financing.

While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing may be required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. We are seeking financing in the form of equity or debt in order to provide the necessary working capital. We currently have no commitments for financing. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required.
 
By adjusting our operations and development to the level of capitalization, management believes we may have sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow deficits through the next twelve months. However, if thereafter, we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.

The independent auditors report on our December 31, 2007 financial statements states that our recurring losses raise substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.

INFLATION

The impact of inflation on the costs of the Company, and the ability to pass on cost increases to its customers over time is dependent upon market conditions. The Company is not aware of any inflationary pressures that have had any significant impact on the Company’s operations over the past quarter, and the Company does not anticipate that inflationary factors will have a significant impact on future operations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not maintain off-balance sheet arrangements nor does it participate in non-exchange traded contracts requiring fair value accounting treatment.

RISK FACTORS

The Company’s business and success is subject to numerous risk factors as detailed in its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007 which is available at no cost at www.sec.gov.
 
ITEM 4T - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, among other things, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, have concluded that as of that date, our disclosure controls and procedures were adequate and effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. The conclusions notwithstanding, you are advised that no system is foolproof.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15 that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
This annual report  does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s reports in this annual report.
