ITEM 4.  CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
         ---------------------------------------------

         On June 15, 2000, Arthur Andersen LLP ("Arthur Andersen") resigned as
independent auditors of International Fast Food Corporation, a Florida
corporation (the "Registrant"). Because Arthur Andersen resigned, rather than
being dismissed by the Registrant, neither the Registrant's Audit Committee or
Board of Directors recommended or approved of a change in the Registrant's
independent auditors.

         The reports of Arthur Andersen on the Registrant's financial statements
for the past two fiscal years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of
opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principle, except for modified opinions for the past two fiscal years
relating to the Registrant's ability to continue as "going concern."

         In connection with Arthur Andersen's audits of the Registrant's
financial statements for the two most recent fiscal years, there have been no
disagreements with Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or
practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of Arthur Andersen would have
caused them to make reference thereto in their report.

         The Registrant's Board of Directors intends to authorize the former
accountant to respond fully to the inquiries of any successor accountant
regarding the foregoing.

         None of the other reportable events listed in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K occurred with respect to the Registrant during the Registrant's
two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding Arthur
Andersen's resignation.

         The Registrant has requested that Arthur Andersen furnish the
Registrant with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission
stating whether Arthur Andersen agrees or disagrees with the above statements.
Such letter is filed as Exhibit 16.2 hereto.
