CASH FLOWS
Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which
contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business. We have not yet established an ongoing source of
revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs. Our ability to continue as a
going concern is dependent on our company obtaining additional capital to fund
operating losses until we become profitable. If we are unable to obtain
additional capital, we could be forced to significantly curtail or cease
operations.
We have only realized nominal revenues from our business. In the next 12 months,
we plan to identify business to whom we can license and/or distribute our brand
and product(s) as well as seek additional opportunities to continue as a going
concern.
COVID-19
In December 2019, a novel strain of COVID-19 was reported in China. Since then,
the COVID-19 has spread globally including across North America and the United
States. The spread of COVID-19 from China to other countries has resulted in the
World Health Organization (WHO) declaring the outbreak of COVID-19 as a
"pandemic," or a worldwide spread of a new disease, on March 11, 2020.
Specifically, we caution that our business could be materially and adversely
affected by the risks, or the public perception of the risks, related to the
outbreak of COVID-19. To date, COVID has directly impacted the ability we have
to participate in trade show events and other in-person marketing. Although
retailers which may carry our products may be considered essential businesses
and therefore be allowed to remain operational, they may experience
significantly reduced demand. The risk of a pandemic, or public perception of
the risk, could cause customers to avoid public places, including retail
properties, and could cause temporary or long-term disruptions in our supply
chains and/or delays in the delivery of our inventory to our customers. Further,
such risks could also adversely affect retail customers' financial condition,
resulting in reduced spending on our products, which are marketed as premium
products. "Shelter-in-place" or other such orders by governmental entities could
also disrupt our operations, if our employees or the employees of our sourcing
partners who cannot perform their responsibilities from home, are not able to
report to work. Risks related to an epidemic, pandemic or other health crisis,
such as COVID-19, could also lead to the complete or partial closure of one or
more of our co-packing facilities or operations of our sourcing partners.

revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our directors, who have
informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs,
however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to
advance or loan funds to us. Management believes our current cash balance will
not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.

$13,555, $8,224 for inventory, intellectual property of $6,125 (net of

financing activities was $51,719 and $10,000, respectively from related party

PLAN OF OPERATION
Our plan of operation for the following twelve months is as follows:
On July 15, 2021, we acquired the assets of Paleo Scavenger, LLC for $10,000.
Paleo owns the Within / Without Granola ("WWG") brand. The purchase price
includes the WWG trademarks, brands, books, records, intellectual property,
commercial sales channel, customer lists and manufacturing rights. Early in
2021, WWG ceased operations and we restarted the manufacturing process in June
2022.
We generated our first sales since inception during August 2022 of approximately
$600. We are currently selling our granola products on Shopify. In addition, we
are in the process of qualifying to sell our products on Amazon.
We must raise at least $100,000 to commence our plan of operation, described
above, and fund our ongoing operational expenses. We have no assurance that
future financing will materialize. If that financing is not available, we may be
unable to continue our operations. Management believes that if we are successful
in raising $100,000, we will be able to generate sales revenue within the
following twelve months thereof. However, if such financing is not available, we
could fail to satisfy our future cash requirements. We have no assurance that
future financing will materialize. Management believes that if subsequent
private placements are successful, we will be able to generate sales revenue
within the following twelve months thereof. However, additional equity financing
may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all, and thus we could fail
to satisfy our future cash requirements.
If we are unsuccessful in raising at least $100,000 through a private placement,
we will then have to seek additional funds through debt financing, which would
be highly difficult for a new, development stage business to obtain. Therefore,
the Company is highly dependent upon the success of an anticipated private
placement offering and failure thereof would result in the Company having to
seek capital from other sources such as debt financing, which may not even be
available to the Company. However, if such financing were available, because we
are a development stage company with little in the way of operations to date, we
would likely have to pay additional costs associated with high-risk loans and be
subject to an above market interest rate. If and when these funds are obtained,
management would evaluate the terms of such debt financing and determine whether
the business could sustain operations and growth and manage the debt load. If we
cannot raise additional proceeds via a private placement of our common stock or
secure debt financing, we would be required to cease business operations and as
a result, investors in our common stock would lose all of their investment.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
