Introduction Market Data Compact

The Monterey Pasta Company produces and markets premium quality
gourmet pasta & pasta sauces using natural ingredients. PSTA
markets & sells through grocery, club stores and nat'l distributors.

While PSTA has had many problems in the past and has suffered
substantial losses, it now seems that the new management team, headed
by the new CEO Kenneth Steel, is poised to turn this company around.

Insiders have also been accumulating stock.
