The following summarizes sales by product type as a percentage of total gross sales. The information is based upon gross sales, rather than net sales, because certain adjustments, such as promotional discounts, are not allocable to product types, for the fiscal year ended:


Product Type	June 26, 2014			June 27, 2013			June 28, 2012
Peanuts		15.1	%		18.2	%		17.6	%

For all periods presented, the largest component of the “Other” product type is trail and snack mixes which include nut products.
