                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Thorn Apple Valley, Inc.
Southfield, Michigan

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Wilson Brands  (the
"Company", as described in Note 1) as of December 31, 1994 and January 1, 1994,
and the related combined statements of operations and retained earnings
(deficit) and cash flows for each of the two fiscal years ended December 31,
1994 and January 1, 1994.  These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

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

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, effective May 30, 1995, the
Company sold substantially all its operating assets subject to certain
liabilities to Thorn Apple Valley, Inc.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the combined financial position of Wilson Brands as of
December 31, 1994 and January 1, 1994, and the combined results of their
operations and cash flows for the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1994 and
January 1, 1994, in conformity with general accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
combined financial statements taken as a whole.  The  unaudited information
presented on pages 5, 6, and 7 is presented for purposes of additional analysis
and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.  Such information
has not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
basic combined financial statements and accordingly we express no opinion
on it.

                                 WILSON BRANDS
                     NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
               (in thousands, except where otherwise indicated)

1.  Background and Basis of Presentation:

         On May 30, 1995, Thorn Apple Valley, Inc. ("TAV") purchased certain
         assets from Foodbrands America, Inc. and subsidiaries ("Foodbrands" or
         the "Sellers"). TAV acquired substantially all of the assets used by
         the Sellers in their business of producing and marketing retail meat
         products.  The assets acquired by TAV include three manufacturing
         facilities located in Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana, machinery,
         equipment, tools, supplies, inventory, receivables, certain trademarks
         and trade names, customer purchase orders and other intangibles
         assets.

         The aggregate purchase price for the assets acquired and the
         assumption of certain liabilities was approximately $65.8 million.
         This amount is subject to adjustment based on the actual value of
         certain of the assets and certain of the liabilities assumed, as of 
         May 29, 1995.  During the next five years, Sellers have the right to 
         receive from TAV up to an additional $10 million in accordance with 
         what is being referred to as an Earnout Agreement.

         The combined financial statements include selected accounts of the
         Retail Division of Foodbrands in order to represent the historical 
         financial position and results of operations of the business purchased
         by TAV (herein referred to as the "Company" or "Wilson Brands").

         Investments of and advances from parent as presented in the financial
         statements represent the net position of the following types of
         transactions between the Sellers and the Company:

                 -- Allocated expenses for services provided to the Company by
                 Foodbrands.  Such services include operating and
                 administrative costs of the Foodbrands central distribution
                 center and certain expenses related to office services.

                 -- Allocations of certain expenses that have been accounted
                 for by Foodbrands and historically have not been allocated to
                 the Company by Foodbrands. These expenses include corporate
                 administrative expenses, interest, amortization of intangible
                 assets and a restructuring charge.  Corporate administrative
                 expenses were allocated based on a ratio of Company sales to
                 Foodbrands sales for each period presented.  The methods used
                 to allocate other expenses are described elsewhere in the
                 notes to the financial statements. The management of
                 Foodbrands believes that the allocation methods are based on
                 assumptions that are reasonable under the circumstances.

                 -- In addition to the various allocated costs and expenses
                 described above and in Notes 2 and 5, the Company has recorded
                 sales to Foodbrands in the amount of $8,239 and $3,623 in 
                 each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 1994 and 
                 January 1, 1994, respectively.

                 -- Receipts, disbursements and the net cash position of the
                 Company have been managed by Foodbrands through a centralized
                 cash management system.  Accordingly, both cash generated by,
                 and cash requirements of, the Company flow through
                 Foodbrands.

         All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been 
         eliminated.

2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

         Concentrations of credit risk:

         The concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables
         are, in Foodbrands' management opinion, considered minimal due to the
         Company's diverse customer base.  The Company sells to customers
         located throughout the United States and in certain foreign countries.
         Credit evaluations of its customers' financial conditions are
         performed periodically, and the Company generally does not require
         collateral from its customers.

         Inventories:

         Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined
         on a first-in, first-out method (FIFO).

         Property, plant and equipment:

         Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost if acquired after
         September 28, 1991, the date the Sellers implemented Fresh Start
         Reporting as set forth in Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial
         Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code"
         ("SOP 90-7"), issued by the American Institute of Certified Public
         Accountants. Upon retirement or disposal of property, plant and
         equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
         accounts and any gain or loss is included in other income.
         Depreciation is computed for financial reporting purposes generally on
         the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets
         (3-40 years) or, for capital leases, the term of the related leases.

         Intangibles assets:

         Intangible assets represent trademarks and tradenames which are being
         amortized over 20  years.

         Reorganization value:

         Foodbrands recorded a reorganization value in conformity with the
         procedures specified by SOP 90-7.  The portion of the reorganization
         value which cannot be attributed to specific tangible or identifiable
         intangible assets of Foodbrands has been reported as "Reorganization
         Value in Excess of Amounts Allocable to Identifiable Assets".
         Foodbrands has allocated $51.6 million of the reorganization value to
         the Company.  The Company is amortizing the reorganization value
         using the straight-line method over 20 years.

         Restructuring charge:

         In December 1994, Foodbrands announced a restructuring program that
         resulted in a charge against operating income in 1994.  The charge
         included costs incurred prior to year-end associated with a corporate
         legal restructuring and to change the corporate name. Foodbrands has
         allocated $1.9 million of this charge to the Company based on the
         specific identification of costs associated with the Company.

         Fiscal year:

         The Company's annual reporting periods end on the Saturday nearest
         December 31. The annual reporting periods ended December 31, 1994 
         and January 1, 1994 contained 52 weeks.

         Income Taxes:

         The Company is not a separate taxable entity for federal, state, or
         local income tax purposes.  The Company's operations are included in
         the consolidated Foodbrands tax returns.  Foodbrands has not
         historically allocated income taxes to the Company.  The calculation
         of a provision for income taxes does not result in an expense to be
         allocated, therefore, a provision does not appear in the financial
         statements.

         A.  In July 1993, Foodbrands entered into an agreement with the
         Arkansas Development Finance Authority to borrow $4 million
         using industrial revenue bonds.  The interest rate is 6%.
         Payments of approximately $58, principal and interest, are due monthly
         through July 2000.

         B.  A note payable, dated July 1993, of approximately $1.8 million is
         collateralized by a mortgage with the City of Forrest City, Arkansas.
         The interest rate on the note is 7%.  Interest only for the first year
         was due in July 1994 and quarterly payments of approximately $91,
         principal and interest, began in September 1994 and are due through
         September 2000.

         The aggregate maturity of long-term debt (excluding obligations under
         capital leases) during the next five years subsequent to December 31,
         1994 are:

         C.  The Company leases certain equipment under agreements which are
         classified as capital leases. Most equipment leases have purchase 
         options at the end of the original lease term.  Leased capital assets
         included in property, plant and equipment are as follows:

         The Company's rental expense for operating leases was $271 and $307
         for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1994, and January 1, 1994,
         respectively.

5. Interest expense:

         The Company incurred interest expense on the debt described in Note 4.
         However, the interest expense reflected in the Statements of
         Operations also includes an allocation of Foodbrands' interest expense
         based upon the ratio of the Company's assets to total Foodbrands
         assets.  Management believes that this method provides a reasonable
         basis for allocation within the Company's historical Statements of
         Operations.

6. Employee benefit plans:

         The Company participates in Foodbrands' defined benefit plans.  Those
         Foodbrands' employees who accept employment with Wilson Brands,
         subsequent to the purchase transaction, will terminate from Foodbrands
         and will maintain their vested rights in the retirement plans, with
         liability remaining with Foodbrands. Total pension cost was $309 and
         $535 for the fiscal years ending December 31, 1994 and January 1,
         1994, respectively.

         The Company also participates in a 401(k) plan sponsored by
         Foodbrands.  The Company makes contributions on behalf of each
         participant of a matching amount not to exceed the employee's
         contribution or 3% of such employee's salary.

7.  Commitments:

         The Company was committed under two agreements made on its behalf by
         Foodbrands.

         The Private Label Manufacturing Agreement, dated May 13, 1992, with a
         term of approximately 5 years, provides the Company with certain meat
         products under the Company's private label.  During the term of the
         agreement, the Company is required to purchase specific products at
         predetermined volumes on a monthly basis (approximately 25 million
         pounds per year).  The product price is the actual cost, including all
         freight, storage, overhead and other costs of the products.

         The Production Agreement, dated October 13, 1993, with a seven year
         term, requires the Company to purchase meat products from an outside
         manufacturer.  The other party to the agreement agreed to construct,
         maintain and operate the facility for the exclusive use of producing
         product for the Company.  The Company agreed to pay the other party
         the products' standard cost and the actual fixed cost for the facility.
         In return for building and operating the facility, the other party
         receives an amount that is equal to 25% of its capital invested, or
         $1.4 million dollars per year.  Also, as part of the agreement, the
         other party agreed to provide and the Company agreed to accept roughly
         400,000 pounds of boneless ham muscle per week or approximately 20
         million pounds a year.

of Thorn Apple Valley, Inc. at May 26, 1995 and Wilson Brands at April 1, 1995.
The pro forma combined balance sheet presents the financial position of Thorn
Apple Valley, Inc. at May 26, 1995 and gives effect to all events of the
purchase.

The pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the fiscal year
ended May 26, 1995 reflects the acquisition as if it had been completed as of
June 1, 1994. The pro forma condensed combined statement of operations includes
the operating results of Thorn Apple Valley, Inc. for the twelve months ending
May 26, 1995 and Wilson Brands operating results for the twelve months ending
April 1, 1995 (Wilson Brands historical fiscal year ending as of December 31,
1994 was adjusted by adding the three month subsequent interim unaudited period
results ending April 1, 1995 and subtracting the previous three month interim
unaudited period ending April 2, 1994).

The unaudited pro forma data does not purport to be indicative of the results
which would actually have been reported if this transaction had occurred on
such date or which may be reported in the future.
