           Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                            September 30, 2000

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information.  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.  It is suggested that these
condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
December 31, 1999 audited financial statements and notes thereto for Armanino
Foods of Distinction, Inc.  The results of operations for the periods ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full year.

     The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Armanino Foods of Distinction, Inc. ("Parent") and it's wholly-owned dormant
subsidiary AFDI, Inc.

     For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments (Treasury Bills) purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.

     The Company acquired a subsidiary (Alborough, Inc.) during May, 1996.
The Company recorded goodwill in the amount of $609,938 as part of the
purchase.  The Company is amortizing the goodwill over 15 years, on a straight
line basis.

     Earnings Per Share   The Company calculates earnings per share in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128
"Earnings Per Share," which requires the Company to present basic and diluted
earnings per share.  The computation of basic earnings per share is based on
the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods
presented.  The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the
weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the year plus,
when their effect is dilutive, additional shares assuming the exercise of
certain vested and non-vested stock options and warrants, reduced by the
number of shares which could be purchased from the proceeds.

     The weighted average common shares and common equivalent shares
outstanding for purposes of calculating earnings per share was as follows:

Note 1 - Continued

     For the nine months ended September 30, 2000 the Company had 95,260 stock
options that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future that
were not included in the diluted computation because to do so would have been
antidilutive for the periods presented.

                            OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2000 v. Quarter and Nine Months
Ended September 30, 1999

     Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 were $3,353,563
compared to $3,163,441 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999.  For the nine
months ended September 30, 2000 net sales were $10,341,697 as compared to
$8,666,770 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.  Increased sales were
experienced across all of the Company's product lines.  The pesto product line
showed the strongest increase in terms of total dollar sales.  The increases
in the pesto product line sales were the result of programs implemented by the
Company offering incentives to brokers and distributors for achieving
specified increases over prior year sales.  Additionally, new uses for pesto
sauces added foodservice accounts during the first nine months.  The pasta
product line showed a strong increase primarily due to a co-pack customer.
Sales of meatballs increased in the retail marketplace.  The Company continues
to focus its efforts on expanding its customer base for all of its products
through promotional programs and an expanded sales force.

     Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales increased slightly from
59.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to 60.6% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2000.  Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales decreased
from 61.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to 60.3% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000.  The decrease in this percentage for the nine
months is due to a shift in the product mix between the product lines and
between the retail and foodservice market segments.  The product mix shifted
from the meatball product line to the more profitable pasta product line.
Additionally, within the pesto product line, there was a shift in the mix from
the retail items to the more profitable foodservice items.

     Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 29.3% for the
quarter ended September 30, 2000 as compared to 31% for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999.  Operating expenses for the first nine months of 2000 were
30.5% as compared to 33% for the first nine months of 1999.  The decrease in
this percentage for the quarter and nine months is primarily due to the
increase in sales.  Salary expense increased due to the hiring of personnel to
fill vacant positions and new sales positions created.

     Net income from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30,
2000 was $221,054 compared to a net income of $190,008 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999.   Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
was $644,611 compared to $342,139 for the nine months ended September 30,
1999.  The increase in net income for both the quarter and the nine months was
primarily due to increased pesto sauce sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At September 30, 2000, the Company had working capital of $4,101,961, a
decrease of $1,443,096 from December 31, 1999.  The decrease in working
capital is primarily due to the purchase of common stock, totalling
$1,320,000, from an affiliate of a former director.  Additionally, payment of
a special dividend of $392,151 and the accrual of a quarterly dividend of
$78,240 contributed to the decrease in working capital.  Current assets
included $3,666,567 in cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
Management believes that this level of working capital is adequate to meet
anticipated needs for liquidity.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, cash provided by
operating activities of the Company amounted to $1,399,282.

                          OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS


     During 1999 the Company's board of directors approved a stock buy-back
plan to purchase the Company's common stock totalling $800,000.  As of
September 30, 2000, the Company had paid approximately $782,774 for common
stock purchased on the open market.

     During May 2000, the Company purchased 220,000 shares at $6.00 per share
in a private transaction from an  affiliate of a former director.

     The Company presently has no material commitments for capital
expenditures.

Year 2000 Compliance

     In 1998, the Company began assessing the various issues relating to the
year 2000.  During 1998 the Company has upgraded its accounting application
software which has been certified by the manufacturer to be year 2000
compliant.  The accounting software includes sales order, inventory, accounts
receivable, accounts payable, general ledger as well as other modules.

     The Company utilized an outside firm to evaluate its information
technology systems.  This outside firm performed the initial evaluation and
testing of the Company's internal network of LAN's, the payroll processing
system and production related processing equipment.  This firm provided a
written report indicating that the Company's systems were year 2000 compliant.

     The Company has incurred approximately $2,000 on upgrading software.
Approximately $4,000 was spent on evaluating and testing current systems
during the fourth quarter of 1998.  During 1999, the Company incurred
approximately $8,000 to upgrade its hardware systems.

     The Company is reviewing its external relationships in order to determine
the impact which may arise from its dealings with customers, suppliers and
service providers.

     The Company sells to approximately 380 customers.  One customer accounts
for approximately 30% of total sales.  At the present time this customer  is
the only trading partner with E.D.I. transactions.  Contact is ongoing with
this customer to ensure that they are year 2000 compliant.  Surveys were sent
to the remaining customers by May 31, 1999 to attempt to determine the extent
of their compliance with the year 2000 issues.  The Company does not expect a
material adverse affect from any single customer in this group.

     At the present time, the Company has not experienced any year 2000
related issues.  However, there can be no assurance that third parties the
Company deals with have resolved their year 2000 issues completely and timely.
Failure to complete the year 2000 project on time could have a material
adverse affect on future operating results and financial condition of the
Company.
