Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.
On October 25, 1996, Amper, Politziner and Mattia was appointed to serve
as the independent public accountants for Foodarama Supermarkets, Inc.
(the "Company") for the fiscal year ending November 2, 1996. Deloitte &
Touche, LLP ("Deloitte") had served as the Company's independent public
accountants for the two (2) fiscal years ended October 28, 1995 and until
such appointment terminated on October 25, 1996. The decision to appoint
Amper, Politziner and Mattia was approved by the Company's Audit Committee
and Board of Directors.
In connection with the audits of the two (2) fiscal years ended October
28, 1995, and the subsequent interim period through October 25, 1996,
there were no disagreements with Deloitte on any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope
or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to Deloitte's
satisfaction would have caused them to make reference in connection with
their opinion to the subject matter of the disagreement. The Foodarama
audit reports issued by Deloitte expressed unqualified opinions.
Accompanying this current report on Form 8-K is an acknowledgment letter
from Deloitte.
