ITEM 8.01.        OTHER EVENTS.

         On October 17, 2005, the Registrant announced that it has discontinued
the manufacture of mozzarella cheese, and will seek to continue to manufacture
its "Select" pizza cheese. The discontinuance of the manufacture of mozzarella
cheese was occasioned by the refusal of St. Albans Cooperative Creamery, ("St.
Albans"), the Registrant's sole supplier of milk (an essential ingredient in the
manufacture of mozzarella cheese), to supply the Registrant with milk after the
Registrant was unable to make full payment on a milk bill last week. Due to such
refusal, on Friday, October 14, 2005, the Registrant was compelled to give
notice of termination to its employees involved in the manufacture of mozzarella
cheese.

         The Registrant had previously announced that, because of significant
losses incurred since December, 2004, due to the unprecedented disconnect at
such time between the price at which it sells its cheese and the cost of milk,
it had developed a capital improvement plan to increase efficiencies and reduce
the cost of manufacturing cheese. The plan called for an infusion of $8,000,000.
Discussions to provide such financing and strengthen the Registrant's balance
sheet were underway with St. Albans, the Vermont Economic Development Authority
("VEDA"), the Franklyn County Economic Development Authority, the United States
Department of Agriculture, the Village of Swanton, Vt., UPS Business Credit,
LLC, LaSalle Business Credit LLC ("LaSalle"), and a potential joint venture
partner that would provide the necessary financing to modify the Registrant's
whey facility. In the past month, elements of the plan were beginning to come
together. Just recently, the Registrant received a Letter of Intent from LaSalle
to supply additional funding conditioned upon a guarantee from VEDA and a
$400,000 letter of credit from St. Albans. Based upon St. Albans' involvement in
moving the plan forward, its action was not anticipated.

         The ability of the Registrant to continue in business will be dependent
upon it being able to increase revenues from the sale of its "Select" pizza
cheese and the willingness of LaSalle to finance such business. Currently,
"Select" pizza cheese accounts for approximately 20% of the Registrant's
revenues. This is expected to increase in the short-term to the equivalent of
25% of the Registrant's sales on a pro forma basis. This is up from 5.5% during
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005 and 1% during the fiscal year ended March
31, 2003. While the Registrant's "Select" pizza cheese requires mozzarella
cheese as an ingredient, the Registrant has determined that it can buy-in its
requirements of such cheese and need not purchase milk to manufacture the same.
"Select" pizza cheese is made utilizing a propriety formula, and has a higher
profit margin than mozzarella cheese. The Registrant is holding discussions with
LaSalle with a view towards continuing to fund the Registrant's operations in
the manufacture and sale of "Select" pizza cheese.
