     This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 14D-1 filed on
     October 8, 1996 (as amended on October 29, 1996 and November 7, 1996 and on
     November 12, 1996 in the form of Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D), which
     also served as the initial Schedule 13D ("Schedule 13D"), by NFC
     Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Purchaser") and a
     wholly-owned subsidiary of Nash-Finch Company, a Delaware corporation
     ("Parent"), with respect to the tender offer to purchase all of the
     outstanding Common Shares, par value $1.00 per share, of Super Food
     Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), at $15.50 per
     Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest, and hereby further
     amends such statement on Schedule 13D to add the supplemental information
     set forth below.  All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
     herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in
     Schedule 14D-1, as amended.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     On October 8, 1996, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of
     Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Parent and the Purchaser, pursuant to
     which Parent and the Purchaser agreed to commence a cash tender offer (the
     "Offer") at a price of $15.50 per Share for all outstanding Shares of the
     Company and, subject to customary terms and conditions, to thereafter
     proceed with a "cash out" merger (the "Merger") at $15.50 per Share of all
     Shares not purchased pursuant to the Offer.

     On November 22, 1996 (the "Effective Time"), the Merger was consummated
     through a merger of the Purchaser into the Company, with the Company
     continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the "Surviving
     Corporation").  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time (a)
     each Share then issued and outstanding (other than (i) Shares held,
     directly or indirectly, by Parent, the Purchaser or any subsidiary of
     Parent or in the treasury of the Company or held by any subsidiary of the
     Company, all of which were cancelled and (ii) Shares held by stockholders
     who properly exercised appraisal rights under the General Corporation Law
     of the State of Delaware) was converted into the right to receive $15.50 in
     cash and (b) each of the 100 shares of Common Stock, par value $.01 per
     share, of the Purchaser then issued and outstanding was converted into one
     share of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation.  As a result, Parent
     owns all of the 100 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of
     the Surviving Corporation.

     At the Effective Time, certain directors of the Parent and the Purchaser
     became directors of the Surviving Corporation.  Following the Merger, the
     Company will cease to have any class of securities either listed on any
     stock exchange or required to be registered pursuant to the Securities
     Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The Company will terminate registration
     of the Shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     (a), (b) Parent beneficially owns 100% of the outstanding shares of Common
     Stock of the Surviving Corporation.  Parent has sole power to vote or to
     direct the vote and sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of all
     of such Shares.

     (c) On November 7, 1996, pursuant to the Offer, Parent and the Purchaser
     accepted for payment the 10,566,682 Shares (including 157,997 Shares
     tendered by notice of

<PAGE>

     guaranteed delivery) that had been validly tendered in the Offer.  On
     November 15, 1996, Parent and the Purchaser paid for the 10,557,183 Shares
     as to which certificates had been physically delivered to the Depositary,
     at a price of $15.50 per Share, for a total purchase price of
     $163,636,336.50.  Accordingly, the Purchaser acquired a total of 10,557,183
     Shares pursuant to the Offer.  Certificates for 9,499 Shares tendered by
     notice of guaranteed delivery were not delivered and, accordingly, were not
     purchased.  On November 22, 1996 any remaining Shares were "cashed out" 
     pursuant to the Merger described above.

     (d) No person other than Parent has the right to receive or the power to
     direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the
     Shares.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

     (a) Certificate of Ownership and Merger merging the Purchaser into the
     Company.
