We are bringing to our customers' attention the fact that the quality of the tomatoes we are able to buy is not consistent. Rather than us decide what they want, they can decide.

The pitching still needs a little attention. They've all got to learn to be a little more careful where they put it, hit their spots, and not just throw it right in there, because they did that some, and got hit pretty hard a few times. We'll be fine. They survived. Our schedule isn't great, because we start so early, but it is nice that we now have two weeks off, because we can use 10 days or so to regroup, and build some of that confidence back up.

We are doing a lot of things differently and attention to quality has heightened considerably.

We are testing combinations of oils as well, to learn how they affect taste, cooking procedures, holding times and shelf life. As usual, consumers will tell us if they like the changes we intend to make.

As a company, we do not comment on rumors and speculation in the marketplace.

We trust our board of directors will make decisions in the best interest of our shareholders.
