EXPLANATORY NOTE


     The Company has restated its consolidated balance sheet for the years ended
May 31, 2003 and consolidated statements of operations,  cash flows and retained
earnings for the years ended May 31, 2003 and 2002 (the "2003 Restatement"). The
restatement affects periods prior to 2002. The impact of the restatement on such
prior periods was reflected as an adjustment to retained  earnings June 1, 2001.
The  restatement  is reported  in this  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year
ending May 31, 2004 and will be reported in amendments to our Quarterly  Reports
on Form 10-Q for its quarterly periods ended August 31, 2003,  November 30, 2003
and February 29, 2004.

     The  restatement  adjustment for years ended May 31, 2003 and 2002 resulted
in a reduction in a previously  reported net loss of  approximately  $.5 million
and a reduction in a previously reported net income of approximately $.5 million
respectively. Basic and diluted loss per share was reduced by $.04 per share for
fiscal 2003.  Basic and diluted earnings per share declined $.04 for fiscal year
2002.  In addition,  as a result of the  cumulative  effect of the  restatement,
retained  earnings  has been  reduced by $1.9 million and $2.4 million as of May
31, 2003 and 2002  respectively.  Also as the result of the cumulative effect of
the  restatement of periods prior to 2002,  the cumulative  effect was to reduce
opening retained earnings June 1, 2001 by approximately $1.9 million.

     For a discussion of the individual  restatement  adjustments,  see "Item 8.
Financial Statements - Note 2. Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements"
(Years  ended May 31, 2003 and 2002).  Additionally,  see "Item 7.  Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition and Resulting  Operations."  For
more  information  on the impact of the  restatement on years 2001 and 2000, see
"Item 6. Selected  Financial Data" in Part II of this report.  These restatement
adjustments  reflect a correction of the Company's  accounting  for accruals for
its vacation pay and self-insured health and casualty  obligations.  The Company
determined  that there had been an error in its  accounting  for  self-insurance
related liabilities. The adjustments required included recognition of previously
unrecorded  liabilities  and  reductions  in amounts  previously  recognized  as
prepaid  amounts to an employee  benefit trust which was incorrect.  The Company
also determined that it had not recorded liabilities for earned vacation not yet
taken as required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

     The  Company  did not amend  its  Annual  Report on Form 10-K or  Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for periods affected by the restatement that ended prior to
May 31, 2003,  and the financial  statements and related  financial  information
contained in such reports should no longer be relied on.

    All  referenced  amounts in this Annual  Report for prior  periods and prior
period comparisons reflect the balances and amounts on a restated basis.

                                     PART I

                               ITEM 1. - BUSINESS

     Golden  Enterprises,  Inc. (the  "Company") is a holding company which owns
all of the issued and  outstanding  capital  stock of Golden  Flake Snack Foods,
Inc., a wholly-owned  operating  subsidiary  company  ("Golden  Flake").  Golden
Enterprises is paid a fee by Golden Flake for providing  management services for
it.

       The  Company  was  originally  organized  under  the laws of the State of
Alabama as Magic City Food  Products,  Inc. on June 11, 1946. On March 11, 1958,
it adopted the name Golden Flake,  Inc. On June 15, 1963, the Company  purchased
Don's Foods,  Inc. a Tennessee  corporation which was merged into the Company on
December 10, 1966. The Company was  reorganized  December 31, 1967 as a Delaware
corporation  without  changing any of its assets,  liabilities  or business.  On
January  1,  1977,  the  Company,  which had been  engaged  in the  business  of
manufacturing and distributing  potato chips, fried pork skins, cheese curls and
other snack foods,  spun off its  operating  division  into a separate  Delaware
corporation known as Golden Flake Snack Foods, Inc. and adopted its present name
of Golden Enterprises, Inc.

The Company owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Golden Flake
Snack Foods, Inc.

                         GOLDEN FLAKE SNACK FOODS, INC.

GENERAL

     Golden Flake Snack Foods, Inc.  ("Golden Flake") is a Delaware  corporation
with its principal place of business and home office located at One Golden Flake
Drive,  Birmingham,  Alabama.  Golden Flake  manufactures and distributes a full
line of salted snack items,  such as potato chips,  tortilla chips,  corn chips,
fried  pork  skins,  baked and fried  cheese  curls,  onion  rings and  buttered
popcorn.  These  products  are all packaged in flexible  bags or other  suitable
wrapping  material.  Golden  Flake also sells a line of cakes and cookie  items,
canned dips,  pretzel,  peanut  butter  crackers,  cheese  crackers,  dried meat
products and nuts packaged by other  manufacturers using the Golden Flake label.
No single  product or product line accounts for more than 50% of Golden  Flake's
sales,  which  affords  some  protection  against  loss of volume  due to a crop
failure of major agricultural raw materials.

RAW MATERIALS

     Golden Flake purchases raw materials used in  manufacturing  and processing
its snack food products on the open market and under  contract  through  brokers
and directly  from  growers.  A large part of the raw  materials  used by Golden
Flake consists of farm  commodities  which are subject to precipitous  change in
supply and price. Weather varies from season to season and directly affects both
the  quality  and  supply  available.   Golden  Flake  has  no  control  of  the
agricultural aspects and its profits are affected accordingly.

DISTRIBUTION

     Golden  Flake sells its  products  through its own sales  organization  and
independent  distributors to commercial  establishments which sell food products
in Alabama and in parts of Tennessee,  Kentucky, Georgia, Florida,  Mississippi,
Louisiana,  North Carolina, South Carolina,  Arkansas and Missouri. The products
are  distributed  by  approximately  436 route  salesmen who are  supplied  with
selling  inventory  by  the  Company's  trucking  fleet  which  operates  out of
Birmingham,  Alabama, Nashville, Tennessee, and Ocala, Florida. All of the route
salesmen are  employees  of Golden Flake and use the direct store door  delivery
method.  Golden  Flake is not  dependent  upon  any  single  customer,  or a few
customers,  the loss of any one or more of which  would have a material  adverse
effect on its  business.  No single  customer  accounts for more than 10% of its
total sales.  Golden Flake has a fleet of 866 company owned  vehicles to support
the route sales  system,  including  43 tractors  and 123 trailers for long haul
delivery to the various company  warehouses  located throughout its distribution
areas, 632 store delivery vehicles and 68 cars and miscellaneous vehicles.



                                       5


COMPETITION

      The  snack  foods  business  is highly  competitive.  In the area in which
Golden Flake operates,  many companies engage in the production and distribution
of food products  similar to those  produced and sold by Golden Flake.  Most, if
not all, of Golden  Flake's  products  are in direct  competition  with  similar
products  of several  local and  regional  companies  and at least one  national
company,  the Frito Lay Division of Pepsi Co., Inc., which is larger in terms of
capital and sales volume than is Golden  Flake.  Golden Flake is unable to state
its relative position in the industry.  Golden Flake's marketing thrust is aimed
at selling the highest quality  product  possible and giving good service to its
customers,  while being  competitive  with its prices.  Golden Flake  constantly
tests the quality of its products for comparison with other similar  products of
competitors and maintains tight quality controls over its products.

EMPLOYEES

       Golden Flake employs  approximately  1,095 employees.  Approximately  643
employees are involved in route sales and sales  supervision,  approximately 306
are  in  production  and  production  supervision,  and  approximately  146  are
management and administrative personnel.

     Golden Flake believes that the performance and loyalty of its employees are
the most  important  factors in the growth and  profitability  of its  business.
Since labor costs  represent a significant  portion of Golden Flake's  expenses,
employee productivity is important to profitability.  Golden Flake considers its
relations with its employees to be excellent.

     Golden  Flake  has a  401(k)  Profit  Sharing  Plan and an  Employee  Stock
Ownership  Plan  designed to reward the long term  employee for his loyalty.  In
addition, the employees are provided medical insurance,  life insurance,  and an
accident and sickness salary  continuance  plan.  Golden Flake believes that its
employee  wage  rates  are  competitive  with  those  of its  industry  and with
prevailing rates in its area of operations.

developments  have  occurred  in the  business  done and  intended to be done by
Golden Flake.

                                  GOLDEN FLAKE

MANUFACTURING PLANTS AND OFFICE HEADQUARTERS

     The main plant and office  headquarters  of Golden Flake are located at One
Golden Flake Drive,  Birmingham,  Alabama,  and are situated on approximately 40
acres of land which is serviced by a railroad spur track. This facility consists
of three  buildings which have a total of  approximately  300,000 square feet of
floor area. The plant manufactures a full line of Golden Flake products.  Golden
Flake  maintains a garage and vehicle  maintenance  service center from which it

           ITEM 7. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GOLDEN ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


     The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of  Operations  set forth in this Item 7 has been revised to reflect the May 31,
2003 10-K/A Amendment No. 1 "Restatement."

     The purpose of this discussion is to provide  additional  information about
Golden  Enterprises,  Inc.,  its  financial  condition  and the  results  of its
operations.  Readers should refer to the consolidated  financial  statements and
other financial data presented  throughout  this report to fully  understand the
following discussion and analysis.

RESTATEMENT

     The Company has restated its consolidated balance sheet for the years ended
May 31, 2003 and consolidated statements of operations,  cash flows and retained
earnings for the years ended May 31, 2003 and 2002 (the "2003" Restatement). The
restatement affects periods prior to 2002. The impact of the restatement on such
prior periods was reflected as an adjustment to retained  earnings June 1, 2001.
The  restatement  is reported  in this  Annual  Report on Form 10-K for the year
ending May 31, 2004 and will be reported in amendments to our Quarterly  Reports
on form 10-Q for its quarterly periods ended August 31, 2003,  November 30, 2003
and February 29, 2004.

The  restatement  adjustment for years ended May 31, 2003 and 2002 resulted in a
reduction in a previously  reported net loss of approximately  $.5 million and a
reduction  in a  previously  reported  net income of  approximately  $.5 million
respectively. Basic and diluted loss per share was reduced by $.04 per share for
fiscal 2003.  Basic and diluted earnings per share declined $.04 for fiscal year
2002.  In addition,  as a result of the  cumulative  effect of the  restatement,
retained  earnings  has been  reduced by $1.9 million and $2.4 million as of May
31, 2003 and 2002 respectively.  Also, as the result of the cumulative effect of
the  restatement of periods prior to 2002,  the cumulative  effect was to reduce
opening  retained  earnings June 1, 2001 by  approximately  $1.9 million.  For a
discussion of individual  adjustment  items, see "Item 8- Financial  Statements-
Note 2 Restatement."

OVERVIEW

          The Company  manufactures  and distributes a full line of snack items,
such as potato chips,  tortilla chips, corn chips,  fried pork skins,  baked and
fried  cheese  curls,  onion rings and  buttered  popcorn.  The products are all
packaged in flexible bags or other suitable wrapping material.  The Company also
sells a line of cakes and cookie  items,  canned dips,  pretzels,  peanut butter
crackers,  cheese  crackers,  dried meat  products  and nuts  packaged  by other
manufacturers using the Golden Flake label.

     No  single  product  or  product  line  accounts  for more  than 50% of the
Company's sales,  which affords some protection  against loss of volume due to a
crop  failure  of  major  agricultural  raw  materials.  Raw  materials  used in
manufacturing  and processing the Company's snack food products are purchased on
the open market and under contract through brokers and directly from growers.  A
large part of the raw materials used by the Company consists of farm commodities
which are subject to  precipitous  changes in supply and price.  Weather  varies
from  season  to  season  and  directly  affects  both the  quality  and  supply
available.  The  Company  has no control  of the  agricultural  aspects  and its
profits are affected accordingly.


                                       12



     The  Company  sells its  products  through its own sales  organization  and
independent  distributors to commercial  establishments  that sell food products
primarily in the  Southeastern  United States.  The products are  distributed by
approximately 436 route  representatives who are supplied with selling inventory
by the Company's trucking fleet. All of the route  representatives are employees
of the Company and use the Company's direct-store delivery system.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

     The  Company's  discussion  and  analysis of its  financial  condition  and
results  of  operations  are based  upon the  Company's  consolidated  financial
statements,  the preparation of which in conformity  with accounting  principles
generally  accepted in the United States of America requires  management to make
estimates and assumptions that in certain  circumstances affect amounts reported
in  the  consolidated   financial  statements.   In  preparing  these  financial
statements,  management  has made its best  estimates  and  judgments of certain
amounts  included in the  financial  statements,  giving due  considerations  to
materiality.  The Company  does not  believe  there is a great  likelihood  that
materially  different  amounts would be reported under  different  conditions or
using different  assumptions related to the accounting policies described below.
However,  application  of these  accounting  policies  involves  the exercise of
judgment and use of  assumptions  as to future  uncertainties  and, as a result,
actual results could differ from these estimates.


Revenue Recognition

     The Company recognizes sales and related costs upon delivery or shipment of
products  to its  customers.  Sales are  reduced by returns  and  allowances  to
customers.

     In November  2001,  the Emerging  Issues Task Force  reached a consensus on
Issue No. 01-09  Accounting  for  Consideration  given by a Vendor to a Customer
(Including a Reseller of the Vendor's Products)  effective for annual or interim
periods  beginning after December 15, 2001. The issue addresses the recognition,
measurement and income statement  classification  for certain sales  incentives.
The Company  implemented  this new  accounting  policy in the fourth  quarter of
fiscal 2002. The effect of this accounting  change is to adopt this policy as of
the  beginning  of the fiscal  2002 (June 1, 2001).  Certain of these  expenses,
including  slotting  fees,  previously  classified  as  selling,   general,  and
administrative  expenses,  are  now  characterized  as  offsets  to  net  sales.
Reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform
to current year presentation. Total vendor sales incentives now characterized as
reductions of net sales that  previously  would have been classified as selling,
general and  administrative  expenses were  approximately  $11.6 million,  $12.8
million and $11.7 million for the years ended 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
There was no resulting impact on net operating results from adopting EITF 01-09.

Change in Accounting Policy

     The Company  changed its accounting  policy in the fourth quarter of fiscal
2002 with regard to slotting fees. The effect of this  accounting  change was to
adopt this policy as of the beginning of fiscal 2002 (June 1, 2001). Previously,
slotting fees were  expensed as incurred.  The Company  changed this  accounting
policy to capitalize and amortize such costs over the expected  benefit  period,
which is generally one year.  This change in accounting  policy was made to more
closely  match the cost of the shelf space  obtained with the slotting fees with
the revenues  produced by the shelf space. The cumulative  effect of this change
in accounting  policy resulted in a non-cash  cumulative  adjustment of $413,401
($0.03 per share), net of taxes. The accounting change also increased net income
before the cumulative effect in 2002 by $197,141 ($0.02 per share).


                                       13



Accounts Receivable

     The Company records accounts  receivable at the time revenue is recognized.
Amounts for bad debt expense are recorded in selling, general and administrative
expenses  on the  Consolidated  Statements  of  Operations.  The  amount  of the
allowance  for  doubtful  accounts  is based  on  management's  estimate  of the
accounts  receivable amount that is uncollectible.  Management records a general
reserve based on analysis of historical  data. In addition,  management  records
specific reserves for receivable  balances that are considered  high-risk due to
known facts  regarding  the  customer.  The  allowance for bad debts is reviewed
quarterly, and it is determined whether the amount should be changed. Failure of
a major customer to pay the Company amounts owed could have a material impact on
the financial  statements  of the Company.  At May 31, 2004 and 2003 the Company
had accounts  receivables in the amount of $7.5 million and $7.8 million, net of
an  allowance   for  doubtful   accounts  of  $0.2  million  and  $0.2  million,
respectively.

Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is computed on
the first-in, first out method.


Accrued Expenses

     Management estimates certain material expenses in an effort to record those
expenses in the period incurred. The most material accrued estimates relate to a
salary  continuation  plan for certain key  executives  of the  Company,  and to
insurance-related expenses, including self-insurance.  Workers' compensation and
general  liability  insurance  accruals are recorded  based on insurance  claims
processed as well as historical claims  experience for claims incurred,  but not
yet reported.  These estimates are based on historical loss development factors.
Employee  medical  insurance  accruals  are  recorded  based on  medical  claims
processed as well as historical  medical claims  experienced for claims incurred
but not yet reported. Differences in estimates and assumption could result in an
accrual requirement materially different from the calculated accrual.

OTHER MATTERS

    Transactions  with  related  parties,  reported  in Note 14 of the  Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements, are conducted on an arm's-length basis in the
ordinary course of business.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Working  capital was $6.7 million at May 31, 2004  compared to $8.3 million
at May 31, 2003.  Net cash  provided by  operations  amounted to $2.9 million in
fiscal year 2004,  $4.6  million in fiscal year 2003 and $1.9  million in fiscal
year 2002. The decrease in net cash provided by operations is primarily  related
to changes in receivables,  inventories  and accounts  payable offset by the net
loss for fiscal  year 2004 of $45,846  compared  to the net loss for fiscal year
2003 of $927,765.

    Additions  to property,  plant and  equipment,  net of  disposals  were $0.8
million,  $0.3  million and $3.8  million in fiscal  years 2004,  2003 and 2002,
respectively, and are expected to be about $1.9 million in 2005.

     Cash  dividends  of $1.5  million,  $2.2 million and $3.0 million were paid
during fiscal years 2004, 2003, and 2002,  respectively.  The quarterly dividend
was  reduced  to $.03125  from  $.0625 in the third  quarter  of fiscal  2003 in
response to a decrease in earnings.


                                       14



     The  amount of cash used to  purchase  treasury  shares in fiscal  2004 was
$0.09 million.  No cash was used to purchase  treasury shares in fiscal 2003 and
$0.2 million was used in 2002.

      During fiscal 2004, the company  re-paid debt, net of borrowings,  of $1.4
million.

     The following table summarizes the significant  contractual  obligations of
the Company as of May 31, 2004:

Other Commitments

     The Company had letters of credit in the amount of  $1,758,987  outstanding
at May 31, 2004 to support the Company's commercial self-insurance program.

     The Company has a  line-of-credit  agreement with a local bank that permits
borrowing  up to $1  million.  The  line-of-credit  is subject to the  Company's
continued credit  worthiness and compliance with the terms and conditions of the
advance application.

     Long-term  liabilities as a percentage of total capitalization was 12.3% at
May 31, 2004. The Company's current ratio at year end was 1.84 to l.00.

     Available cash, cash from operations and available credit under the line of
credit are expected to be sufficient to meet anticipated  cash  expenditures and
normal operating requirements for the foreseeable future.

OPERATING RESULTS

     Net sales  increased  by 1.0% in fiscal  year  2004,  decreased  by 7.4% in
fiscal year 2003,  and  increased  by 1.5% in fiscal year 2002.  The increase in
fiscal 2004 was primarily due to less promotional  payments to vendors that were
subtracted  from sales as required by EITF 01-9. The decrease in fiscal 2003 was
due to a general sales weakness in the U.S. salty snacks category,  particularly
during the first part of the fiscal year.

      Cost of sales as a  percentage  of net  sales  amounted  to 52.5% in 2004,
52.5% in 2003,  and  52.1% in  2002.  Cost of sales  stabilized  in 2004 and the
percentage  increase  in cost of sales for  fiscal  2003 was caused by the lower
sales volume and higher  commodity  prices and energy cost. The cost decrease in
2002 was due primarily to lower energy costs.

      Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses were 47.7% of net sales in
2004,  49.4% in 2003,  and 45.7% in 2002.  The 1.7%  decrease for fiscal 2004 is
attributed  to  the  increase  in net  sales  and a  decrease  in  vendor  sales
incentives.  The higher  percentage  cost for fiscal 2003 was due to significant
increases in employee medical, workers' compensation, general and auto liability
insurance costs, and energy costs. The more favorable cost percentage for fiscal
2002 was  primarily  due to lower selling and delivery cost brought about by the
exiting of the  fringe  sales  regions in Central  Florida as part of the fiscal
2000 restructuring plan.

       The Company's  effective tax rates for 2004,  2003, and 2002 were 221.3%,
(27.9%) and 39.2%, respectively. Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
provides additional information about the provision for income taxes.


                                       15



OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT

     The Company entered into a five-year term product purchase agreement during
the year ending May 31, 2001 with a supplier.  Under the terms of the  agreement
the minimum  purchase  quantity and the purchase price were fixed resulting in a
minimum first year commitment of approximately $2,171,000. After the first year,
the  minimum  purchase  quantity  was fixed and the  purchase  unit  price,  was
negotiable  based on the current  market.  The  purchase  product  agreement  as
subsequently  amended  is  described  in more  detail in Note 14 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

MARKET RISK

     The  principal  market  risks (i.e.  the risk of loss  arising from adverse
changes in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are interest
rates  on its cash  equivalents,  investment  securities  and  bank  loans,  and
commodity prices affecting the cost of its raw materials.

     The Company's cash equivalents consist of short-term marketable securities.
Presently these are variable rate money market funds.  Its bank loans also carry
variable rates.  Assuming year end 2004 variable rate investment levels and bank
loan balances, a one-point change in interest rates would impact interest income
by $1,520 and interest expense by $9,996.

     The Company is subject to market risk with respect to  commodities  because
its ability to recover  increased costs through higher pricing may be limited by
the competitive  environment in which it operates. The Company purchases its raw
materials on the open market,  under contract  through brokers and directly from
growers.  Futures  contracts  have been used  occasionally  to hedge  immaterial
amounts of commodity purchases, but none are presently being used.

INFLATION

     Certain  costs and expenses of the Company are affected by  inflation,  and
the Company's  prices for its products over the past several years have remained
relatively  flat. The Company will contend with the effect of further  inflation
through efficient purchasing,  improved manufacturing  methods,  pricing, and by
monitoring and controlling expenses.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

     There  have  been  no  material   effects  of  compliance  with  government
provisions regulating discharge of materials into the environment.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This discussion  contains  certain  forward-looking  statements  within the
meaning of the Private Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results
could differ materially from those forward-looking statements.  Factors that may
cause actual results to differ materially  include price  competition,  industry
consolidation,  raw  material  costs and  effectiveness  of sales and  marketing
activities,  as described in the Company's  filings with Securities and Exchange
Commission.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

     The Company  restated its previously  issued  financial  statements for the
three years ended May 31, 2003. The  restatement  affected  periods prior to May
31, 2001.  The impact of the  restatement on such prior periods was reflected as
an adjustment to opening  retained  earnings as of June 1, 2000. The restatement
was reported in amendment No. 1 to the retained earnings as of June 1, 2000. The
restatement  was reported in amendment No. 1 to the  Company's  Annual Report on
Form 10-K/A for the year ended May 31,  2003.  The  Company  also  restated  the
Company's  Quarterly  Reports on Form  10-Q/A for the  quarterly  periods  ended
August  31,  2003,  November  30,  2003 and  February  29,  2004  with  restated
comparative information for comparative periods of the previous year.


                                       16


     In connection with their audits of the restatement of previously issued
annual financial statements and the consolidated financial statements for the
year ended May 31, 2004, the Company's independent auditors identified and
communicated to the Company and the Audit Committee "material weaknesses" (as
defined under audit standards adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board) relating to the Company's accounting and public reporting of significant
matters and management review and oversight of certain accounting matters.

     In the past year, the Company  undertook to review and analyze its internal
audit program and has directed senior management to dedicate  resources and take
steps to strengthen controls.  The company engaged the services of a third party
consultant to assist in its review and analysis. The Company intends to identify
and implement  actions to improve the  effectiveness  of procedures and internal
controls,  including  enhanced training with respect to financial  reporting and
disclosure responsibilities.

RECENT ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     Effective June 1, 2002, the Company  adopted SFAS No. 144,  "Accounting for
the  Impairment  or  Disposal  of  Long-Lived  Assets."  SFAS No. 144  addresses
financial  accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived
assets  to be held and  used,  to be  disposed  of other  than by sale and to be
disposed  of by sale.  The  adoption  of this  standard  did not have a material
impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Cost Associated
with Exit or Disposal  Activities." SFAS No 146 requires  companies to recognize
costs associated with exit or disposal  activities when they are incurred rather
than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal  plan.  Costs covered by
SFAS No. 146 includes lease  termination  costs and certain  employee  severance
costs that are associated with a restructuring,  discontinued operations,  plant
closing or other exit or disposal  activity.  SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit
or disposal  activities  initiated  after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted
SFAS No. 146 on June 1, 2003 and the  adoption of this  standard  did not have a
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

     In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation  - Transition  and  Disclosure - an amendment of FASB Statement No.
123."  SFAS  No.  148  amends  SFAS  No.  123,   "Accounting   for   Stock-Based
Compensation"  to provide  alternative  methods of  transition  for a  voluntary
change to the fair value based method of  accounting  for  stock-based  employee
compensation.  In addition,  SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure  requirements of
SFAS No.  123 to  require  prominent  disclosures  in both  annual  and  interim
financial  statements  about the method of accounting for  stock-based  employee
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.  The Company
has adopted the disclosure  requirements  of SFAS No. 148 effective May 31, 2003
in its consolidated  financial statements.  The Company will continue to account
for  stock-based  compensation  using the methods  detailed  in the  stock-based
compensation accounting policy as described earlier.

     In April 2003,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 149 "Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities."  This  statement  amends and
clarifies the  accounting and reporting for  derivative  instruments,  including
embedded derivatives, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends SFAS No.
133 to reflect  the  decisions  made as part of the  Derivatives  Implementation
Group and in other FASB projects or deliberations.  SFA No. 149 is effective for
contracts  entered  into or  modified  after  June  30,  2003,  and for  hedging
relationships  designed  after  June 30,  2003 and did not have an impact on the
Company.

     In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB  Interpretation  No. 46 (FIN No. 46),
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,  an Interpretation of ARB No. 51."
FIN No. 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the
primary  beneficiary of the entity if the equity  investors in the entity do not
have the  characteristics  of a  controlling  financial  interest or do not have
sufficient  equity at risk for the  entity to  finance  its  activities  without
additional  subordinated  financial  support from other  parties.  FIN 46 became
effective  February 1, 2003 for variable interest entities created after January
31, 2003,  and July 31, 2003 for variable  interest  entities  created  prior to
February  1, 2003.  In  December  2003,  the FASB  issued a revised  FIN 46. The
revised standard,  FIN 46R,  modifies or clarifies various  provisions of FIN 46
and incorporates  many FASB Staff Positions  previously issued by the FASB. This
standard  replaces  the  original  FIN 46 that was issued in January  2003.  The
adoption  of  these  new  standards  did not  have an  impact  on the  Company's
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

                                       17


     In  December  2003,  the FASB issued a revised  SFAS No.  132,  "Employers'
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement  Benefits." The revised SFAS
No.  132  revised  employers'  disclosures  about  pension  plans and other post
retirement  benefit plans.  It did not change the  measurement or recognition of
those plans required by SFAS No. 87, "Employers'  Accounting for Pensions," SFAS
No. 88,  "Employers'  Accounting for  Settlements  and  Curtailments  of Defined
Benefit  Pension  Plans  and  for  Termination  Benefits,"  and  SFAS  No.  106,
"Employers'  Accounting for  Postretirement  Benefits Other Than  Pensions." The
revised  SFAS No. 132  retains  the  disclosure  requirements  contained  in the
original  SFAS No.  132.  It  requires  additional  disclosures  to those in the
original  SFAS No.  132 about  the  assets,  obligations,  cash  flows,  and net
periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit
postretirement  plans.  The adoption of this new standard did not have an impact
on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

     In December 2003, the SEC released Staff  Accounting  Bulletin ("SAB") 104.
SAB 104 revises or rescinds portions of the interpretative  guidance included in
SEC Topic 13, "Revenue Recognition," in order to make this interpretive guidance
consistent with current  authoritative  accounting and auditing guidance and SEC
rules and  regulations.  The  principal  revisions  relate to the  rescission of
material no longer  necessary  because of private  sector  developments  in U.S.
generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  SAB 104 also  rescinds the Revenue
Recognition  in Financial  Statements  Frequently  Asked  Questions  and Answers
document issued in conjunction with Topic 13. Selected portions of that document
have been  incorporated into Topic 13. The adoption of this new standard did not
have an impact on the  Company's  financial  position,  results of operations or
cash flows.

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Stockholders and
Board of Directors of
Golden Enterprises, Inc.


We  have  audited  the  accompanying   consolidated  balance  sheets  of  Golden
Enterprises,  Inc. and  subsidiary as of May 31, 2004 and 2003,  and the related
consolidated statements of operations,  changes in stockholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended May 31,  2004.  Our audits
also  included the financial  statement  schedule  listed at Item 16(a)2.  These
consolidated  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of the  Company's
management.  Our  responsibility is to express an opinion on these  consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance  with the standards of the Public  Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and  perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the
consolidated  financial statements are free of material  misstatement.  An audit
includes  examining,  on a test  basis,  evidence  supporting  the  amounts  and
disclosures in the  consolidated  financial  statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall consolidated  financial statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated  financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects,  the consolidated financial position of Golden
Enterprises,  Inc.  and  subsidiary  as of  May  31,  2004  and  2003,  and  the
consolidated  results of their  operations  and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period  ended May 31, 2004,  in  conformity  with  accounting
principles  generally  accepted  in the United  States of  America.  Also in our
opinion, such financial statement schedule,  when considering in relation to the
basic consolidated  financial statements,  taken as a whole, presents fairly, in
all material respects, the information set forth therein.

As described in Note 2,  Restatement of prior period financial  statements,  the
Company has restated previously issued financial statements.

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial  statements,  effective June 1, 2001 the
Company changed its accounting policy with respect to slotting fees.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           May 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of Golden Enterprises, Inc. and subsidiary
("Company")  conform to accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United
States of America and to general principles within the snack foods industry. The
following is a description of the more significant accounting policies:

NATURE OF THE BUSINESS
The Company  manufactures  and  distributes  a full line of snack items that are
sold  through  its  own  sales  organization  and  independent  distributors  to
commercial  establishments that sell food products primarily in the Southeastern
United States.

CONSOLIDATION
The   consolidated   financial   statements   include  the  accounts  of  Golden
Enterprises,  Inc. and its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Golden Flake Snack Foods,
Inc., (the "Company").  All significant  intercompany  transactions and balances
have been eliminated.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
The  Company  recognizes  sales and related  costs upon  delivery or shipment of
products  to its  customers.  Sales are  reduced by returns  and  allowances  to
customers.

REVENUE CLASSIFICATION CHANGES
In November  2001,  the Emerging  Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue
No.  01-09  Accounting  for  Consideration  Given  by a  Vendor  to  a  Customer
(Including a Reseller of the Vendor's Products)  effective for annual or interim
periods  beginning after December 15, 2001. The issue addresses the recognition,
measurement and income statement  classification  for certain sales  incentives.
The Company  implemented  this new  accounting  policy in the fourth  quarter of
fiscal 2002. The effect of this accounting  change is to adopt this policy as of
the  beginning  of the fiscal  2002 (June 1, 2001).  Certain of these  expenses,
including  slotting  fees,  previously  classified  as  selling,   general,  and
administrative  expenses,  are  now  characterized  as  offsets  to  net  sales.
Reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform
to current year presentation. Total vendor sales incentives now characterized as
reductions of net sales that  previously  would have been classified as selling,
general and  administrative  expenses were  approximately  $11.6 million,  $12.8
million and $11.7 million for the years ended 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
There was no resulting impact on net operating results from adopting EITF 01-09.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents.

INVENTORIES
Inventories  are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is computed on the
first-in, first-out method.

                           May 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property,  plant and  equipment  are  stated at cost.  For  financial  reporting
purposes,  depreciation and amortization  have been provided  principally on the
straight-line  method over the estimated useful lives of the respective  assets.
Accelerated methods are used for tax purposes.

Expenditures  for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred;
expenditures  for renewals and  betterments  are  capitalized and written off by
depreciation and amortization charges.  Property retired or sold is removed from
the asset and related accumulated  depreciation  accounts and any profit or loss
resulting therefrom is reflected in the statements of operations.

SELF-INSURANCE
The Company is self-insured for certain losses relating to automobile liability,
general liability,  workers'  compensation,  property losses and medical claims.
The Company also has stop loss coverage to limit the exposure arising from these
claims.  Self-insurance  claims  filed and claims  incurred but not reported are
accrued  based  upon  management's  estimates  of the  aggregate  liability  for
uninsured claims incurred.  Automobile  liability,  general liability,  workers'
compensation,  and  property  losses costs are covered by letters of credit with
the Company's claims administrators.


ADVERTISING
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.  These costs are included in
selling,  general and administrative  expenses in the Consolidated  Statement of
Operations.   Advertising   expense  amounted  to  $4,452,926,   $5,031,409  and
$4,371,719 for the fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

INCOME TAXES
Deferred  income taxes are provided  using the  liability  method to measure tax
consequences  resulting from differences between financial  accounting standards
and applicable  income tax laws.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance  when, in the opinion of  management,  it is more likely than not that
some portion or all of the  deferred  tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred
tax assets and  liabilities  are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws
and rates on date of enactment.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
The  Company  does not  identify  separate  operating  segments  for  management
reporting purposes.  The results of operations are the basis on which management
evaluates  operations  and makes  business  decisions.  The Company's  sales are
generated primarily within the Southeastern United States.

STOCK OPTIONS
The Company applies APB Opinion 25,  "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,"
and  related  interpretations  in  accounting  for all stock  option  plans.  No
stock-based  compensation  cost has been  recognized  in  operations  for  stock
options  granted because the option exercise price was equal to or more than the
market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation," as amended by SFAS No.
148,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based  Compensation - Transition and  Disclosure,"
requires  the  Company to provide  pro forma  information  regarding  net income
(loss) as if the compensation cost for the Company's stock option plans had been
determined in accordance with the fair value based method prescribed in SFAS No.
123. To provide the required pro forma  information,  the Company  estimates the
fair  value of each stock  option at the grant  date by using the  Black-Scholes
option-pricing model.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
Shipping and  handling  costs,  which  include  salaries and vehicle  operations
expenses  relating to the  delivery of products to  customers by the Company are
classified as Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses.  Shipping and
handling  costs  classified as SG&A  amounted to $2.3 million,  $2.3 million and
$2.5 million for the fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent  assets and  liabilities at the date of the financial  statements and
the  reported  amounts of revenues  and expenses  during the  reporting  period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECENT ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2001, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No.
143,  "Accounting for Asset Retirement  Obligations,"  which addresses financial
accounting and reporting obligations  associated with the retirement of tangible
long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development or
normal use of assets.  The Company  adopted SFAS No. 143 on June 1, 2003 and the
adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's  consolidated financial
statements.

                           May 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

Effective June 1, 2002, the Company  adopted SFAS No. 144,  "Accounting  for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived  Assets." SFAS No. 144 addresses  financial
accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived  assets to
be held and used,  to be disposed of other than by sale and to be disposed of by
sale.  The  adoption  of this  standard  did not have a  material  impact on the
Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Cost Associated with
Exit or Disposal  Activities." SFAS No 146 requires companies to recognize costs
associated  with exit or disposal  activities when they are incurred rather than
at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal  plan.  Costs covered by SFAS
No. 146 includes lease  termination  costs and certain employee  severance costs
that are associated with a restructuring, discontinued operations, plant closing
or other  exit or  disposal  activity.  SFAS No.  146 is  effective  for exit or
disposal activities  initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company adopted SFAS
No.  146 on June 1,  2003  and the  adoption  of this  standard  did not  have a
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December  2002,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,  "Accounting  for  Stock-Based
Compensation  - Transition  and  Disclosure - an amendment of FASB Statement No.
123."  SFAS  No.  148  amends  SFAS  No.  123,   "Accounting   for   Stock-Based
Compensation"  to provide  alternative  methods of  transition  for a  voluntary
change to the fair value based method of  accounting  for  stock-based  employee
compensation.  In addition,  SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure  requirements of
SFAS No.  123 to  require  prominent  disclosures  in both  annual  and  interim
financial  statements  about the method of accounting for  stock-based  employee
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.  The Company
has adopted the disclosure  requirements  of SFAS No. 148 effective May 31, 2003
in its consolidated  financial statements.  The Company will continue to account
for  stock-based  compensation  using the methods  detailed  in the  stock-based
compensation accounting policy as described earlier.

In April 2003,  the FASB  issued SFAS No. 149  "Amendment  of  Statement  133 on
Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities."  This  statement  amends and
clarifies the  accounting and reporting for  derivative  instruments,  including
embedded derivatives, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends SFAS No.
133 to reflect  the  decisions  made as part of the  Derivatives  Implementation
Group and in other FASB projects or deliberations.  SFA No. 149 is effective for
contracts  entered  into or  modified  after  June  30,  2003,  and for  hedging
relationships  designed  after  June 30,  2003 and did not have an impact on the
Company.

In January  2003,  the FASB  issued  FASB  Interpretation  No. 46 (FIN No.  46),
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,  an Interpretation of ARB No. 51."
FIN No. 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the
primary  beneficiary of the entity if the equity  investors in the entity do not
have the  characteristics  of a  controlling  financial  interest or do not have
sufficient  equity at risk for the  entity to  finance  its  activities  without
additional  subordinated  financial  support from other  parties.  FIN 46 became
effective  February 1, 2003 for variable interest entities created after January
31, 2003,  and July 31, 2003 for variable  interest  entities  created  prior to
February  1, 2003.  In  December  2003,  the FASB  issued a revised  FIN 46. The
revised standard,  FIN 46R,  modifies or clarifies various  provisions of FIN 46
and incorporates  many FASB Staff Positions  previously issued by the FASB. This
standard  replaces  the  original  FIN 46 that was issued in January  2003.  The
adoption  of  these  new  standards  did not  have an  impact  on the  Company's
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

In  December  2003,  the  FASB  issued  a  revised  SFAS  No.  132,  "Employers'
Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement  Benefits." The revised SFAS
No.  132  revised   employers'   disclosures   about  pension  plans  and  other
postretirement  benefit plans.  It did not change the measurement or recognition
of those plans  required by SFAS No. 87,  "Employers'  Accounting for Pensions,"
SFAS No. 88, "Employers'  Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined
Benefit  Pension  Plans  and  for  Termination  Benefits,"  and  SFAS  No.  106,
"Employers'  Accounting for  Postretirement  Benefits Other Than  Pensions." The
revised  SFAS No. 132  retains  the  disclosure  requirements  contained  in the
original  SFAS No.  132.  It  requires  additional  disclosures  to those in the
original  SFAS No.  132 about  the  assets,  obligations,  cash  flows,  and net
periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit
postretirement  plans.  The adoption of this new standard did not have an impact
on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2003, the SEC released Staff  Accounting  Bulletin  ("SAB") 104. SAB
104 revises or rescinds  portions of the  interpretatative  guidance included in
SEC Topic 13, "Revenue Recognition," in order to make this interpretive guidance
consistent with current  authoritative  accounting and auditing guidance and SEC
rules and  regulations.  The  principal  revisions  relate to the  rescission of
material no longer  necessary  because of private  sector  developments  in U.S.
generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  SAB 104 also  rescinds the Revenue
Recognition  in Financial  Statements  Frequently  Asked  Questions  and Answers
document issued in conjunction with Topic 13. Selected portions of that document
have been  incorporated into Topic 13. The adoption of this new standard did not
have an impact on the  Company's  financial  position,  results of operations or
cash flows.

RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain items included in prior years'  consolidated  financial  statements have
been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

NOTE 2 - RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Prior period financial  statements have been restated to reflect  adjustments to
the Company's  financial  information  previously  reported on Form 10-K for the
years ended May 31, 2003, and 2002. The Company's 2003 quarterly information and
comparative  2002  information has also been restated to reflect  adjustments to
the  Company's  previously  reported  financial  information  on Form 10-Q.  The
restatement  affected  periods prior to 2002.  The impact of the  restatement on
such prior periods has  reflected as an  adjustment  to retained  earnings as of
June 1, 2001. In addition,  the restatement  impacts the first, second and third
quarters of 2004. The restated  amounts for these quarters are presented in Note
16,  Quarterly  Results  of  Operations  (Unaudited).  Each  of the  restatement
adjustments  is an "error"  within the  meaning of APB  Opinion  20,  Accounting
Changes.

Self-Insurance liability: The Company determined that there had been an error in
its accounting for self-insurance related liabilities.  The adjustments required
included  recognition  of previously  unrecorded  liabilities  and reductions in
amounts previously recognized as prepaid amounts to an employee trust which were
incorrect.

Compensated   absences:   The  Company  determined  that  it  had  not  recorded
liabilities for earned vacation not yet taken as required by GAAP.

Other items: This category includes adjustments previously identified but deemed
to be immaterial.  Adjustments  in this category  change the timing of the items
that were previously recognized.

Income tax adjustments: As a result of the restatement adjustments,  the Company
recognized  an  additional  federal and state  deferred  valuation  allowance of
$120,000 in 2003. The remaining  amounts pertain to the tax effects of the error
correction themselves.

NOTE 3 - CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY

The Company  changed its accounting  policy in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002
with regard to slotting fees. The effect of this accounting  change was to adopt
this  policy as of the  beginning  of fiscal  2002 (June 1,  2001).  Previously,
slotting fees were  expensed as incurred.  The Company  changed this  accounting
policy to capitalize and amortize such costs over the expected  benefit  period,
which is generally one year.  This change in accounting  policy was made to more
closely  match the cost of the shelf space  obtained with the slotting fees with
the revenues  produced by the shelf space. The cumulative  effect of this change
in accounting  policy  resulted in a noncash  cumulative  adjustment of $413,401
($0.03 per share), net of taxes. The accounting change also increased net income
before the cumulative effect in 2002 by $197,141 ($0.02 per share).

Pro forma  information  regarding net income and earnings per share is presented
as if the Company had accounted  for its employees  stock options under the fair
value  method.  The per share  weighted  average fair value of the stock options
granted  during  fiscal  2002 was  $.25.  The fair  value of these  options  was
estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with
the  following  weighted  average  assumptions:  risk-free  interest  rate  5.05
percent;  dividend  yield 6.56  percent;  expected  option life of 5 years;  and
expected volatility of 15 percent. No options were granted during 2004 or 2003.

The Black-Scholes  options pricing model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of traded  options which have no vesting  restrictions  and are fully
transferable.  In addition,  option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective  assumptions  including the expected stock price volatility.  Because
the  Company's  employee  stock  options  have   characteristics   significantly
different from those of traded  options,  and because  changes in the subjective
input  assumptions  can materially  affect an option's fair value  estimate,  in
management's  opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of it employee stock options.

NOTE 12 - NET INCOME PER SHARE


Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing  earnings  available to
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares  outstanding during
the period.  Diluted  earnings per share  reflects per share  amounts that would
have resulted if dilutive  potential common stock equivalents had been converted
to common stock,  as prescribed by Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards
No. 128,  "Earnings  per Share".  Options to purchase  369,000  shares of common
stock at May 31, 2004 and 2003 were not included in the  computation  of diluted
earnings  per share  because the options'  exercise  price were greater than the
average  market price of the common shares and,  therefore,  the effect would be
antidulitive. The following reconciles the information used to compute basic and
diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 13 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards No. 107, Disclosures About Fair
Value of Financial  Instruments  requires  disclosure of fair value  information
about  financial  instruments,  whether  or not  recognized  on the  face of the
balance  sheet,  for which it is  practical  to estimate  that  value.  SFAS 107
defines fair value as the quoted  market prices for those  instruments  that are
actively  traded in financial  markets.  In cases where quoted market prices are
not available,  fair values are estimated using present value or other valuation
techniques. The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based
on available  market  information and judgments about the financial  instrument,
such as  estimates  of timing and amount of expected  future  cash  flows.  Such
estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering
for sale at one time the  Company's  entire  holdings of a particular  financial
instrument, nor do they consider the tax impact of the realization of unrealized
gains

The  carrying  amounts  for cash and cash  equivalents  approximate  fair  value
because  of the short  maturity,  generally  less than  three  months,  of these
instruments.

The fair value of notes  receivable  is estimated by using a discount  rate that
approximates the current rate for comparable notes. At May 31, 2004 and 2003 the
aggregate fair value was approximately  $2,437,778 and $2,507,357  compared to a
carrying amount of $1,865,746 and $1,908,000, respectively.

NOTE 13 - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS -CONTINUED

The interest rate on the Company's  bank debt is reset monthly to reflect the 30
day LIBOR rate.  Consequently,  the carrying value of the bank debt approximates
fair value.

The  carrying  value of the  Company's  salary  continuation  plan  and  accrued
liability approximates fair value because present value is used in accruing this
liability.

The Company does not hold or issue financial  instruments  for trading  purposes
and has no involvement with forward currency exchange contracts.


NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Rental expense was $493,028 in 2004,  $498,031 in 2003, and $547,742 in 2002. At
May 31, 2004,  the Company was  obligated  under  certain  operating  leases for
buildings, office space and equipment.

In May of 2004,  the Company  terminated  a lease for  equipment  from a company
which is principally  owned by a major shareholder of Golden  Enterprises,  Inc.
The lease was terminated through a purchase of the equipment for $160,000.

The  Company  leases its  airplane  to a major  shareholder  of the  Company for
approximately  $20,000 per month. The lease provides for his personal use of the
airplane  for up to 100 flight hours per year and is for a term of one year with
automatic renewal at the option of either party.

The Company had letters of credit in the amount of $1,758,987 outstanding at May
31, 2004 to support the Company's commercial self-insurance program. The Company
pays a commitment fee of 0.375% to maintain the letters of credit.

The Company entered into a five-year term product purchase commitment during the
year ending May 31, 2001 with a supplier.  Under the terms of the  agreement the
minimum purchase  quantity and the unit purchase price were fixed resulting in a
minimum first year commitment of approximately $2,171,000. After the first year,
the  minimum  purchase  quantity  was  fixed  and the  purchase  unit  price was
negotiable,  based on current  market.  Subsequently,  in  September  2002,  the
product  purchase  agreement  was  amended  to fix the  purchase  unit price and
establish  specific  annual  quantities.  As  of  May  31,  2004  the  Company's
outstanding purchase commitments were as follows:


                 Years ending
                 May 31,                        Amount
                 -------------                ---------
                 2005 ...................... $1,491,000
                 2006 ......................    605,000


The Company has entered into various other short term purchase  commitments with
suppliers for raw materials in the normal course of business.

NOTE 15 -CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK


The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit
risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and trade receivables.

The Company maintains deposit  relationships  with high credit quality financial
institutions.  The Company's trade  receivables  result primarily from its snack
food operations and reflect a broad customer base, primarily large grocery store
chains located in the Southeastern United States. The Company routinely assesses
the financial  strength of its customers.  As a consequence,  concentrations  of
credit risk are limited.

The Company's  notes  receivable  require  collateral  and buyer  investment and
management believes they are well secured.

ITEM 9. -  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
                ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Not Applicable.

ITEM 9 A. - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

     The Company  performed an evaluation,  under the  supervision  and with the
participation  of  the  Company's  management,  including  the  Company's  Chief
Executive  Officer and Chief  Financial  Officer,  of the  effectiveness  of the
design and operation of the Company's  disclosure  controls and procedures as of
the end of the fiscal year ended May 31, 2004. Based upon that  evaluation,  the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end
of the fiscal year ended May 31, 2004,  the  Company's  disclosure  controls and
procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in
reports that the Company files or submits under the  Securities and Exchange Act
of 1934 is recorded,  processed,  summarized  and reported  within the specified
time periods.

         During the  performance  of the audit for the fiscal year ended May 31,
2004, the Company's independent auditors, Dudley, Hopton-Jones,  Sims & Freeman,
PLLP (the  "Auditor"),  identified  and  communicated  to the  Company  material
weaknesses relating to the Company's  accounting for its vacation pay (which was
not in conformity with generally accepted  accounting  principles  ("GAAP")) and
self insured  obligations.  The Company was not accruing for earned vacation pay
and its liabilities  were  understated for certain  incurred as well as incurred
but not reported  self-insured  casualty claims and health costs. Based upon the
forgoing,  the Company has restated its audited financial  statements for fiscal
year 2003 and for the first  three  quarters  of  fiscal  year 2004 to  properly
account for accruals for its vacation pay and  self-insured  health and casualty
obligations.  The Company believed, during the years being restated, that it was
correctly  following proper accounting  practices.  For a full discussion of the
restatements,  see "Item 7.  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."

         The Company has accepted the  recommendations  of its Auditor to reduce
the  recurrence  of  material  weaknesses  and  is  implementing   policies  and
procedures to strengthen the Company's internal controls, including, among other
things,  the  following:  (1) developing  written  policies and procedures to be
followed  with  respect  to  accounting   for  vacation  pay  and   self-insured
obligations; (2) formally designating management level personnel responsible for
accounting for vacation pay and self-insured obligations; (3) expanding internal
audit  activities  to  include  a  quarterly  examination  of  vacation  pay and
self-insured  obligations;  (4) implementing a fully developed actuarially based
method of measuring  liabilities  related to self-insured  obligations;  and (5)
implementing  quarterly  communications among management,  internal auditor, and
the Audit Committee prior to filing Forms 10-Q.

      Other  than as  described  above,  there  has not been any  change  in the
Company's  internal  controls  over  financial  reporting  that  has  materially
affected,  or is reasonably likely to materially  affect, the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.
