ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 1997

      The following information for the quarters ended March 31, 1998 and 1997
has been derived from the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements
and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.

                                               Three months ended March 31,
                                               ----------------------------
                                                1998                  1997
                                               ------                ------
                                               (dollar amounts in thousands)

Net sales                                $ 4,649     100.0%    $ 6,780    100.0%
Gross profit                               1,827      39.3       2,649     39.1
Operating expenses:
   Selling                                   790      17.0         835     12.3
   General and administrative                564      12.1         619      9.1
   Research and development                  472      10.2         473      7.0
   Amortization expense                      187       4.0         222      3.3

Provision for income taxes                     2        --           1       --
Net (loss) income                           (325)      7.0         328      4.8

      Net sales. Net sales decreased 31% to $4,649,000 for the first quarter of
1998 from $6,780,000 for the first quarter of 1997 primarily due to a reduction
in shipments in 1998 of a new product line to a significant customer (which
product line was initially launched in January 1997) ($1,381,000 to $51,000),
and to a lesser extent, a weakening of demand in the flavor industry.

      Gross profit. Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, improved modestly to
39.3% on sales of $4,649,000 for the first quarter of 1998 as compared to 39.1%
on sales of $6,780,000 for the first quarter of 1997. Higher gross margin
percentages from product mix during the first quarter of 1998 offset the impact
of lower sales volume which normally results in a lower gross margin percentage.

      Selling expenses. Selling expenses decreased to $790,000 for the first
quarter of 1998 from $835,000 for the comparable 1997 period due principally to
the effects of the Company's cost containment program implemented in the latter
part of 1997.

      General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased to $564,000 for the first quarter of 1998 from $619,000 for the first
quarter of 1997 primarily as a result of reductions in administrative personnel,
professional and consulting services in accordance with the Company's cost
containment program.

      Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses of
$472,000 for the first quarter of 1998 was relatively unchanged from the
$473,000 in the first quarter of 1997.

      Amortization expense. Amortization expense decreased to $187,000 for the
first quarter of 1998 from $222,000 for the first quarter of 1997. Deferred
charges associated with the Company's October 1996 $1.5 million convertible debt
financing were expensed in 1997 in conjunction with the conversion of one-half
of the principal amount of the notes into Common Stock in October 1997.

      Interest expense, net. Interest expense decreased to $137,000 for the
first quarter of 1998 from $171,000 for the comparable 1997 quarter. The
decrease was primarily due to the reduction in long-term debt and lower interest
rates as a result of the October 1997 refinancing. See "Liquidity and Capital
Resources."

      Provision for income taxes. Provision for income taxes represents state
franchise taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      During the three months ended March 31, 1998, cash used in operating
activities amounted to $348,000 as compared to $756,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997. Working capital at March 31, 1998 was $4,732,000 as
compared to $4,998,000 at December 31, 1997.

      Historically, the Company's financing needs have been met through the
issuances of equity and debt securities. On October 16, 1997, the Company
entered into a new credit agreement with a bank providing for a $6,000,000
revolving credit facility and a $750,000 term loan facility (the "1997 Credit
Facility"). The 1997 Credit Facility replaced its then existing $5,500,000
credit line (the "1996 Credit Facility") and paid $750,000 of the principal
amount of the Company's then outstanding 9% Convertible Subordinated Notes due
October 17, 1998 (the "October 1997 Refinancing"). Outstanding borrowings under
the 1997 Credit Facility bear interest based on the bank's London Interbank
Offering Rate ("LIBOR") plus 2 1/2% (which currently equates to approximately
1/4 of 1% below the bank's prime rate) or 1/2 of 1% above the bank's prime rate,
at the Company's option. As of March 31, 1998, the outstanding borrowings under
the 1997 Credit Facility bore interest at the rate of approximately 8.2% per
annum.

      Outstanding borrowings are collateralized by substantially all of the
assets of the Company and are subject to eligibility requirements relating to
the Company's receivables, inventories and product formulations. In December
1997, the Company was in violation of two financial covenants in the credit
agreement relating to the 1997 Credit Facility. In March 1998, the Company and
the lender under the 1997 Credit Facility entered into a waiver and amendment
agreement (the "1998 Amendment") which waived compliance by the Company with
certain covenants for 1997 and amended certain financial covenants for 1998 and
beyond. In connection with the 1998 Amendment, the Company is obligated to pay
the bank $75,000 on or before July 1, 1998, provided however, that in the event
certain conditions are met, the amount required to be paid to the bank will be
reduced to $50,000.

      On March 9, 1998, the Company's $888,019 subordinated note payable was
amended to extend the first principal installment of $177,604 from March 31,
1998 to January 1, 2000. The remaining four principal installments are payable
on January 1 each year thereafter through 2004. As of March 31, 1998, the
Company's outstanding capital lease obligations amounted to approximately
$99,000. As of March 31, 1998, the Company had outstanding borrowings of
approximately $675,000, including current maturities, under its term loan
facility and approximately $5,075,000 under its revolving credit facility and
approximately $713,000 was available for borrowings against its borrowing base.


                                      -6-

      Under the credit agreement relating to the 1997 Credit Facility, the
Company is prohibited from incurring any indebtedness other than, among other
things, existing indebtedness, subordinated debt (with the consent of the bank),
and unsecured trade indebtedness in the ordinary course of business, and is
restricted in its ability to, among other things, incur liens, make investments,
sell assets, make acquisitions and pay dividends.

      The Company believes it has adequate capital to fund current operations
for the remainder of 1998. However, the Company may be required to obtain
additional financing earlier in order to continue its operations or otherwise.
There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available when needed,
or if available, will be on favorable terms or in the amounts required by the
Company. If adequate funds are not available to the Company when needed, it may
be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its marketing and
development efforts or other operations, which could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and prospects. Future
issuances of the Company's securities will cause dilution to the Company's then
existing stockholders, which in certain circumstances could be substantial.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

      The Company has been named as a defendant in a certain legal action
      arising out of the normal course of its operations, the final outcome of
      which cannot presently be determined. On April 3, 1998, the Company filed
      an Answer and Counterclaim denying the allegations in the complaint. The
      Company intends to vigorously contest the action, and believes it to be
      without merit. Although there can be no assurance, management is of the
      opinion that the resolution of this matter will not have a significant
      impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
      flows.
