                 Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
                          Statement of Operations



Note 1.   Basis of Presentation

          The pro forma condensed consolidated statement of
     operations for the six months ended July 2, 1994, has been
     prepared assuming the Acquisition had been consummated on
     January 2, 1994, and includes the historical consolidated
     results of operations of the Company for the six months
     ended July 2, 1994, and the historical results of Frozen
     Specialty Foods for the five months ended May 31, 1994.  The
     pro forma combined results of operations are not necessarily
     indicative of results of operations that would have resulted
     had the Acquisition actually occurred on January 2, 1994 nor
     are they necessarily indicative of future results of
     operations.

          The pro forma combined statement of operations does not
     give effect to the $1 million extraordinary net loss
     resulting from the consummation of a new bank term loan and
     revolving line of credit and related early extinguishment of
     the existing revolving line of credit.

Note 2.   Pro Forma Adjustments

     (a)  To record the net change in depreciation expenses based
          on the fair value of depreciable assets, versus their
          historical cost, using the straight line method over
          their estimated useful lives.

     (b)  To record amortization of trademarks over 25 years and
          goodwill over a period of 40 years, and eliminate
          amortization of the historical goodwill of Frozen
          Specialty Foods.

     (c)  To record additional interest attributable to the
          increase in bank debt to finance the Acquisition,
          record amortization of debt issue costs over the term
          of the new bank debt and eliminate amortization of debt
          issue costs attributable to debt which was
          extinguished.

     (d)  To record the tax benefit attributable to the net pro
          forma adjustments based on the statutory (federal and
          state) tax rate of 40%.  The effective tax rate in
          future years is expected to be in excess of the
          statutory rate due to non-deductible amortization of
          previously recorded intangible assets.

     (e)  The weighted average number of common and common
          equivalent shares used in the pro forma earnings per
          share computation were 7,921,000 (historical).
