Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

     The  purpose  of  the  Merger  is  to  achieve  a  combined   company  with
     substantially   more  resources  and  greater   manufacturing,   sales  and
     distribution capabilities than either entity as a stand-alone company.

Plans and Proposals:

(a)  Mr.  Phillips may be issued  additional  shares of Organic  Food  Products,
     Inc.,  under certain  circumstances,  in accordance  with the Agreement and
     Plan of Merger  and  Reorganization  relating  to the Merger (as more fully
     described  below).  Depending  upon his  evaluation of future  developments
     (including,  but not limited to, market for the common stock, the effective
     yield on the  common  stock,  availability  of funds,  alternative  uses of
     funds, stock market and general economic conditions), Mr. Phillips may from
     time to time  purchase  more common stock or dispose of all or a portion of
     the common stock that he holds.  Any such additional  purchases or sales of
     common stock may be in open-market or privately-negotiated  transactions or
     otherwise.

(b)-(c) While  there are no  current  plans or  proposals  for any of the events
     described in items (b)-(c) of this Item 4, it is  anticipated  that Organic
     Food Products, Inc. will continue to evaluate its business operations on an
     on-going basis,  and that such evaluation may from time to time lead to the
     acquisition or  disposition  of various  product lines which may involve an
     extraordinary  corporate  transaction  or a sale of a  material  amount  of
     assets.

(d)  Vacancies  currently exist on the Board of Organic Food Products,  Inc. and
     the Board is currently engaged in a search for qualified candidates.

(g)  Amendments  to the charter and the by-laws of Organic Food  Products,  Inc.
     were approved as part of the Merger as more fully described in the Form S-4
     Registration  Statement  of Organic  Food  Products,  Inc.  and joint proxy
     statement related to the Merger.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a)  Mr. Phillips will initially receive in the Merger,  31,519,328 shares of no
     par value common stock of Organic Food Products, Inc. constituting 71.9% of
     the class.

     Pursuant to the terms of the  Certificate of Merger,  the  shareholders  of
     Spectrum  Naturals,  Inc.,  including Mr. Phillips,  may receive additional
     shares after the effective date of the Merger as follows:

          (i) for each share of Organic Food Products,  Inc. common stock issued
     upon exercise,  in accordance  with their terms, of any and all warrants or
     options to purchase Organic Food Products, Inc. common stock outstanding as
     of the effective  date of the Merger,  Organic Food  Products,  Inc.  shall
     issue .000434 shares of common stock of the Organic Food Products, Inc. for
     each share of Spectrum Naturals, Inc.; and




          (ii) in the event  that the  Applicable  Price (as  defined in Section
     1.10 of the Agreement and Plan of Merger and  Reorganization by and between
     Organic Food Products, Inc. and Spectrum Naturals, Inc. dated as of May 14,
     1999) exceeds $0.75 per share (the "Baseline  Price"),  then for each $0.01
     per share above the Baseline Price, Organic Food Products, Inc. shall issue
     27,293 shares of common stock of the Organic Food  Products,  Inc. for each
     share of Spectrum Naturals, Inc.

     provided that any such additional shares issued to Spectrum Naturals,  Inc.
     shareholders,  together with all other shares issued to Spectrum  Naturals,
     Inc.  shareholders  in the Merger shall not exceed eighty  percent (80%) of
     the outstanding common stock of Organic Food Products,  Inc., including all
     outstanding  options,  warrants or other rights to acquire capital stock of
