                             STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

                  To Purchase 250,000 Shares of Common Stock of

                         Galaxy Nutritional Foods, Inc.

      THIS CERTIFIES that, for value received, BH Capital Investments, L.P. (the
"Holder"), is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter
set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the "Initial Exercise Date")
and on or prior to the close of business on October 6, 2009 (the "Termination
Date"), but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from Galaxy
Nutritional Foods, Inc., a corporation incorporated in Delaware (the "Company"),
two hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) shares (the "Warrant Shares") of Common
Stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company (the "Common Stock"). The per share
purchase price of the Warrant Shares (the "Exercise Price") shall be $2.00.

      1. Title to Warrant. Prior to the Termination Date and subject to
compliance with applicable laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are
transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company by the
Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this
Warrant together with the Assignment Form annexed hereto properly endorsed.

      2. Authorization of Shares. The Company covenants that all shares of
Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, be duly
authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all
taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in
respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
<PAGE>

      3. Exercise of Warrant. Except as provided in Section 4 herein, exercise
of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made at any time or
times on or after the Initial Exercise Date, and before the close of business on
the Termination Date by the surrender of this Warrant and the Notice of Exercise
Form annexed hereto duly executed, at the office of the Company (or such other
office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the
registered Holder hereof at the address of such Holder appearing on the books of
the Company) and upon payment of the Exercise Price of the shares thereby
purchased by wire transfer or cashier's check drawn on a United States bank, the
Holder of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive a certificate for the number
of shares of Common Stock so purchased. This Warrant may also be exercised in
whole or in part by means of a "cashless exercise" by tendering this Warrant to
the Company to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal in Market Value
to the difference between the Market Value of the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon such exercise of this Warrant and the total cash exercise price of
that part of the Warrant being exercised. "Market Value" for this purpose shall
be the closing price of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. on the
date of such cashless exercise. Certificates for shares purchased hereunder
shall be delivered to the Holder hereof within four (4) Trading Days after the
date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised as aforesaid. This Warrant
shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates
shall be deemed to have been issued, and the Holder or any other person so
designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a the Holder of
record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been
exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required
to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 5 prior to the issuance of
such shares, have been paid. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part,
the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing
the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased shares of Common Stock
called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be
identical with this Warrant.

      4. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be
entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall pay a cash adjustment
in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to the Exercise Price.

      5. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for shares of
Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the Holder hereof for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in
respect of the issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses
shall be paid by the Company, and such certificates shall be issued in the name
of the Holder of this Warrant or in such name or names as may be directed by the
Holder of this Warrant; provided, however, that in the event certificates for
shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than the name of the
Holder of this Warrant, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be
accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder
hereof; and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a
sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.

      6. Further Assurances. The Company will take all action that may be
necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue
fully paid and nonassessable shares of stock, free from all taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issue thereof, on the exercise of all or any portion
of this Warrant from time to time outstanding.

      7. Transfer, Division and Combination.

            (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws,
transfer of this Warrant and all rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be
registered on the books of the Company to be maintained for such purpose, upon
surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, together with
a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto
duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay
any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender
and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new
Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the
denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and
shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant
not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. A Warrant, if
properly assigned, may be exercised by a new Holder for the purchase of shares
of Common Stock without having a new Warrant issued.


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

            (b) This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a
written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are
to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to
compliance with Section 7(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such
division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or
Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in
accordance with such notice.

            (c) The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense
(other than transfer taxes) the new Warrant or Warrants under this Section 7.

            (d) The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books
for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Warrants.

      8. No Rights as Stockholder until Exercise. This Warrant does not entitle
the Holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the
Company prior to the exercise hereof. Upon the surrender of this Warrant and the
payment of the aggregate Exercise Price, the Warrant Shares so purchased shall
be and be deemed to be issued to such Holder as the record owner of such shares
as of the close of business on the later of the date of such surrender or
payment.

      9. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company
covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant certificate
or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss,
theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it,
and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if
mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate
of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or
stock certificate.

      10. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for
the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted
herein shall be a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, then such action may be
taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day not a Saturday,
Sunday or legal holiday.

      11. Adjustments of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares.

            (a) Stock Splits, etc. The number and kind of securities purchasable
upon the exercise of this Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price shall be
subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of any of the
following. In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend in shares of Common
Stock or make a distribution in shares of Common Stock to the Holders of its
outstanding Common Stock, (ii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock
into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, (iii) combine its outstanding
shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock or (iv)
issue any shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock,
then the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant
immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder of this Warrant
shall be entitled to receive the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other
securities of the Company which he would have owned or have been entitled to
receive had such Warrant been exercised in advance thereof. Upon each such
adjustment of the kind and number of Warrant Shares or other securities of the
Company which are purchasable hereunder, the Holder of this Warrant shall
thereafter be entitled to purchase the number of Warrant Shares or other
securities resulting from such adjustment at an Exercise Price per Warrant Share
or other security obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Warrant Shares purchasable
pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing by the number
of Warrant Shares or other securities of the Company resulting from such
adjustment. An adjustment made pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective
immediately after the effective date of such event retroactive to the record
date, if any, for such event.

<PAGE>

            (b) Reorganization, Reclassification, Merger, Consolidation or
Disposition of Assets. In case the Company shall reorganize its capital,
reclassify its capital stock, consolidate or merge with or into another
corporation (where the Company is not the surviving corporation or where there
is a change in or distribution with respect to the Common Stock of the Company),
or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all its property,
assets or business to another corporation and, pursuant to the terms of such
reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of
assets, shares of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation, or any
cash, shares of stock or other securities or property of any nature whatsoever
(including warrants or other subscription or purchase rights) in addition to or
in lieu of common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation ("Other
Property"), are to be received by or distributed to the holders of Common Stock
of the Company, then the Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon
exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of common stock of the successor
or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation,
and Other Property receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a holder of
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable
immediately prior to such event. In case of any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets, the successor
or acquiring corporation (if other than the Company) shall expressly assume in
writing or by by operation of law the due and punctual observance and
performance of each and every covenant and condition of this Warrant to be
performed and observed by the Company and all the obligations and liabilities
hereunder, subject to such modifications as may be deemed appropriate (as
determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company)
in order to provide for adjustments of shares of Common Stock for which this
Warrant is exercisable which shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 11. For purposes of this Section 11,
"common stock of the successor or acquiring corporation" shall include stock of
such corporation of any class which is not preferred as to dividends or assets
over any other class of stock of such corporation and which is not subject to
redemption and shall also include any evidences of indebtedness, shares of stock
or other securities which are convertible into or exchangeable for any such
stock, either immediately or upon the arrival of a specified date or the
happening of a specified event and any warrants or other rights to subscribe for
or purchase any such stock. The foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall
similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, mergers,
consolidations or disposition of assets.

      12. Voluntary Adjustment by the Company. The Company may at any time
during the term of this Warrant, reduce the then current Exercise Price to any
amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors
of the Company.

      13. Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the number of Warrant Shares or number
or kind of securities or other property purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant or the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall
promptly mail by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the
Holder of this Warrant notice of such adjustment or adjustments setting forth
the number of Warrant Shares (and Other Property) purchasable upon the exercise
of this Warrant and the Exercise Price of such Warrant Shares (and Other
Property) after such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts
requiring such adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such
adjustment was made. Such notice, in the absence of manifest error, shall be
conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment.

      14. [ RESERVED]


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

      15. Notice of Corporate Action. If at any time:

            (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common
Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other
distribution, or any right to subscribe for or purchase any evidences of its
indebtedness, any shares of stock of any class or any other securities or
property, or to receive any other right; or

            (b) there shall be any capital reorganization of the Company, any
reclassification or recapitalization of the capital stock of the Company or any
consolidation or merger of the Company with, or any sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all the property, assets or business of the
Company to, another corporation; or

            (c) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then, in any one or more of such cases, the Company shall give to the Holder (i)
at least 30 days' prior written notice of the date on which a record date shall
be selected for such dividend, distribution or right or for determining rights
to vote in respect of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger,
consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition, liquidation or winding up, and (ii)
in the case of any such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
sale, transfer, disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, at least 30
days' prior written notice of the date when the same shall take place. Such
notice in accordance with the foregoing clause also shall specify (x) the date
on which any such record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,
distribution or right, the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to any such dividend, distribution or right, and the amount and
character thereof, and (y) the date on which any such reorganization,
reclassification, merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, disposition,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the time, if any
such time is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities or Other
Property deliverable upon such disposition, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up. Each such written notice shall be sufficiently given if addressed to the
Holder at the last address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company
and delivered in accordance with Section 16(d).

      16. Authorized Shares.

            (a) The Company covenants that during the period the Warrant is
outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a
sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares
upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further
covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to
its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to
execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the
exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all
such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares
may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or
regulation, or of any requirements of the Principal Market upon which the Common
Stock may be listed.

            (b) The Company shall not by any action, including, without
limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any
reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or
sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the
observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the
taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the
rights of the Holder against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any shares of
Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the amount
payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par
value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order
that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable
shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iii) use its best
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be necessary to enable
the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.


                                      -5-
<PAGE>

            (c) Upon the request of the the Holder, the Company will at any time
during the period this Warrant is outstanding acknowledge in writing, in form
reasonably satisfactory to the Holder, the continuing validity of this Warrant
and the obligations of the Company hereunder.

            (d) Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment
reducing the current Exercise Price below the then par value, if any, of the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Company shall
take any corporate action which may be necessary in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable shares of such Common
Stock at such adjusted Exercise Price.

            (e) Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in
the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable or in
the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or
exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public
regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

      17. Miscellaneous.

            (a) Jurisdiction. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors
or assigns of the Company. This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the
laws of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law principles or rules.

            (b) Restrictions. The Holder hereof acknowledges that the Warrant
Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have
restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

            (c) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or
failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of the Holder shall operate
as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder's rights, powers or
remedies, notwithstanding all rights hereunder terminate on the Termination
Date. If the Company fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, the
Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any
costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees,
including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting
any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights,
powers or remedies hereunder.

            (d) Notices. Any notice, request or other document required or
permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder hereof by the Company shall be
delivered in accordance with the notice provisions of a certain Stock Repurchase
Agreement, dated of even date herewith, among the Holder, the Company and
another party.

            (e) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of
affirmative action by the Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock, and no
enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof, shall give
rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock
or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the
Company or by creditors of the Company.


                                      -6-
<PAGE>

            (f) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise
all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that
monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by
reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to
waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law
would be adequate.

            (g) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws,
this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors of the Company and the successors
and permitted assigns of the Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended
to be for the benefit of all holders from time to time of this Warrant and shall
be enforceable by any such Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

            (h) Indemnification. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Holder from and against any liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, reasonable
attorneys' fees, expenses and disbursements of any kind which may be imposed
upon, incurred by or asserted against the Holder in any manner relating to or
arising out of any failure by the Company to perform or observe in any material
respect any of its covenants, agreements, undertakings or obligations set forth
in this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable
hereunder to the extent that any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, attorneys' fees, expenses
or disbursements are found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court to have
resulted from the Holder's bad faith or willful misconduct in its capacity as a
stockholder or warrantholder of the Company.

            (i) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the
provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

            (j) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant
shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under
applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or
invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such
provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

            (k) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the
convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part
of this Warrant.
