                        CONAGRA FOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
            UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of earnings
give effect to the merger of International Home Foods, Inc. with and into a
wholly owned subsidiary of ConAgra Foods, Inc. on August 24, 2000 using the
purchase method of accounting, after giving effect to the pro forma
adjustments described in the accompanying notes.  The unaudited pro forma
combined condensed statements of earnings should be read in conjunction with
the audited and unaudited historical consolidated financial statements and
notes of ConAgra Foods and International Home Foods.

The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of earnings give effect
to the merger as if it had occurred at the beginning of the period presented.
ConAgra Foods' fiscal year ended on May 28, 2000 and International Home
Foods' fiscal year ended on December 31, 1999.  The unaudited pro forma
combined condensed statements of earnings for the year ended May 28, 2000 and
the thirteen weeks ended August 27, 2000 combine the historical consolidated
statements of earnings of ConAgra Foods with the recasted unaudited
consolidated statements of earnings of International Home Foods for the
twelve-month and three-month period ended June 30, 2000.  For purposes of
presenting the unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of earnings,
International Home Foods' fiscal year has been recasted to June 30, 2000, by
including the unaudited reported financial statements for the quarter ended
June 30, 2000 and the three previous quarters ended March 31, 2000, December
31, 1999 and September 30, 1999.  The merger is reflected in ConAgra Foods'
historical unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of August 27, 2000, and
accordingly no pro forma balance sheet is provided.

The unaudited pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes are
based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions that the managements of
ConAgra Foods and International Home Foods believe are reasonable.  The pro
forma adjustments are based on the information and assumptions currently
available.  The purchase price allocation will be completed after the
finalization of asset and liability valuations.  The unaudited pro forma
combined condensed statements of earnings are presented for illustrative
purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the operating results or
financial position that would have actually occurred if the merger had been
in effect on the dates indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of future
operating results or financial position of the merged companies.  The
unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not give
effect to any potential cost savings or other operating synergies that
ConAgra Foods expects to result from the transaction.

       NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    (AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)

On August 24, 2000, ConAgra Foods acquired all of the issued and outstanding
shares of common stock and stock options of International Home Foods in a
transaction accounted for as a purchase business combination.  The assets
acquired and liabilities assumed will be assigned a portion of the purchase
price equal to their respective fair market values at August 24, 2000.  The
unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are based on the
following:

1.   The historical consolidated statements of earnings of ConAgra Foods.

2.   The historical consolidated statements of earnings of International Home
     Foods' recasted for the twelve-month and three-month period ended
     June 30, 2000.

3.   The pro forma statements of earnings adjustments are as follows:

     a.  Provide depreciation and amortization of the fair values assigned to
         all identifiable tangible and intangible assets.  The excess of the
         purchase price over the net assets acquired has preliminarily been
         allocated to nondeductible goodwill and is being amortized using the
         straight-line method over 40 years.

         ConAgra Foods expects to allocate a portion of the purchase price to
         buildings, machinery and equipment and other intangible assets,
         including brands.  Assuming these assets had a weighted average life
         of 20 years, for each $100.0 million allocated to buildings, machinery
         and equipment or other intangible assets, pro forma operating expenses
         would increase by $3.5 million and pro forma net income would decrease
         by $1.6 million.

     b.  Reclassification of International Home Foods' trade promotion expenses
         from selling, general and administrative expenses to net sales to
         conform to ConAgra Foods' presentation.

     c.  Adjust interest expense relating to (1) additional borrowings under
         ConAgra Foods' credit facilities of approximately $875 million for
         the cash portion of the purchase price and approximately $719 million
         for the repayment of International Home Foods credit facilities at an
         assumed interest rate of 7.81% and (2) additional long-term borrowings
         of $385 million at 6.8% for the repayment of International Home Foods
         $385 million 10.375% Senior Secured Notes as follows:

         A .125% change in the interest rate on the new indebtedness would
         change interest expense by approximately $.6 million and $2.5 million
         for the thirteen weeks ended August 27, 2000 and fiscal year ended
         May 28, 2000, respectively.

     d.  Change in income tax expense/benefit as a result of pro forma
         adjustments which affect taxable income.  No pro forma income taxes
         have currently been provided on the portion of the purchase price
         preliminarily allocated to non-deductible goodwill.
