Ladies and Gentlemen:
We were previously principal accountants for TurboChef Technologies, Inc. and,
under the date of January 30, 1998, except as to note 13, which was as of
March 4, 1998, we reported on the financial statements of TurboChef
Technologies, Inc. as of and for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996. On
December 21, 1998, we resigned. We have read TurboChef Technologies, Inc.'s
statements included under item 4 of its Form 8-K dated December 23, 1998, and we
agree with such statements except that we are not in a position to agree or
disagree with TurboChef Technologies, Inc.'s statements that the change was
recommended by the audit committee of the board of directors or that the board
of directors approved the appointment of Arthur Anderson LLP as independent
public accountants.
Very truly yours,
/s/ KPMG Peat Marwick LLP
