                        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements of U.S. Foodservice and its
consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company") at January 1, 2000 and for the three-
month and six-month periods ended December 26, 1998 and January 1, 2000 included
herein are unaudited, but include all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring entries) which the Company's management believes to be necessary for
the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash
flows of the Company as of and for the periods presented. Interim results are
not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year.

In June 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock
split in the form of a stock dividend paid on August 4, 1999 to stockholders of
record on July 20, 1999. Earnings per share, weighted average shares outstanding
and stock option information included in the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements and related notes have been adjusted to reflect this stock
split.

NOTE 2 - ACQUISITIONS

PARKWAY ACQUISITION- Effective December 21, 1999, the Company completed the
acquisition of three companies doing business as Parkway Food Service
("Parkway"), a broadline foodservice distributor located in Greensburg,
Pennsylvania. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the Company acquired
certain assets and assumed certain liabilities for 204,894 shares of the
Company's common stock and approximately $3.1 million in cash, payable in
specified increments, the last of which is due June 30, 2001.  In addition, the
agreement includes a provision for future cash payments to the selling
shareholders contingent upon achievement of future gross profit and operating
expense performance targets. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase.
Results of Parkway for the period from December 21, 1999 to January 1, 2000 are
included in the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations.

SUPERIOR ACQUISITION- Effective October 30, 1999, the Company completed the
acquisition of Superior Projects Mfg. Co. Limited Partnership and Christianson
Sales Co. Limited Partnership (collectively, "Superior"), a foodservice
equipment and supplies distributor located in New Brighton, Minnesota. Under the
terms of the acquisition agreement, the Company acquired all of the partnership
interests in Superior in exchange for approximately $59.1 million in cash.  The
transaction was accounted for as a purchase.  Results of Superior for the period
from October 30, 1999 through January 1, 2000 are included in the Company's
condensed consolidated statement of operations.

SOFCO ACQUISITION- On July 1, 1999, the Company completed the acquisition of
Sofco, Inc. ("Sofco"), a paper product distributor located in Scotia, New York.
The transaction was accounted for as a purchase.

WEBB ACQUISITION- Effective November 1, 1998, the Company completed the
acquisition of Joseph Webb Foods, Inc. ("Webb"), a broadline foodservice
distributor located in Vista, California. The transaction was accounted for as a
purchase.

HAAR ACQUISITION- Effective September 27, 1998, the Company completed the
acquisition of J.H. Haar & Sons, L.L.C. ("Haar"), a broadline foodservice
distributor serving the New York City metropolitan market. The transaction was
accounted for as a pooling of interests. Because Haar's total assets, net assets
and the results of operations were not material to the Company for any of the
fiscal years presented, the transaction was recorded as of September 27, 1998.

The tables below set forth pro forma information, in thousands, for the three-
month and six-month periods ended December 26, 1998 and January 1, 2000 giving
effect to the acquisitions of Parkway, Superior, Sofco, Webb and Haar as if such
acquisitions had been consummated as of June 27, 1998:

NOTE 4 - RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED COSTS

On December 23, 1997, Rykoff-Sexton, Inc., the nation's third-largest broadline
foodservice distributor based on net sales, was merged into a wholly owned
subsidiary of U.S. Foodservice (the "acquisition"). In connection with the
acquisition, the Company recorded a $56.7 million restructuring charge during
the year ended June 27, 1998.  The restructuring costs consisted primarily of
$26.8 million for change in control payments to former executives of Rykoff-
Sexton, $12.2 million for severance and benefits, $10.8 million for future lease
commitments and $6.9 million for idle facility and facility closure costs
related to the Company's plan to consolidate and realign certain operating units
and consolidate various overhead functions.  As of January 1, 2000, execution of
the plan is substantially complete. To date, the Company has experienced no
significant changes to the restructuring plan. As of January 1, 2000, the
Company has completed the closure of all facilities included in the
restructuring plan.

In connection with Rykoff-Sexton's acquisition of US Foodservice, Inc. in May
1996, Rykoff-Sexton recorded a restructuring charge of $57.6 million ($35.7
million after tax) in the nine-week fiscal transition period ended June 29,
1996. The restructuring charge consisted of severance and employee benefits of
$10.7 million, lease related costs of $20.2 million and other closure and
integration costs of $26.7 million.

The following table summarizes the status of the Company's restructuring
reserves:

</TABLE>

The Company expects to expend $2.3 million during the remainder of fiscal 2000.
The balance relates primarily to remaining lease commitments that are being paid
in various amounts through fiscal 2008.

NOTE 5 - RECENTLY ENACTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

During 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activity. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities and
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.
In accordance with the pronouncement, the Company will adopt SFAS No. 133, as
amended, in fiscal 2001. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any,
that SFAS No. 133 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 - CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation and proceedings arising
out of the ordinary course of business.  There are no pending material legal
proceedings or environmental investigations to which the Company is a party or
to which the property of the Company is subject as of the date of this report.

NOTE 7 - INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has two reportable segments: broadline foodservice distribution
("Broadline") and other services ("Other Services"). Broadline, consisting of
approximately 40 operating locations, distributes over 43,000 food and non-food
related products to over 130,000 foodservice customers, including restaurants,
hotels, casinos, healthcare institutions and schools. Other Services represent
manufacturing operations, including the manufacturing operations purchased as
part of the acquisition of Sofco in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999, and
contract and design services. In August 1998, the Company outsourced its Rykoff-
Sexton manufacturing division by selling the assets to a third party. Contract
and design services primarily involve the design of restaurants and eating
establishments.

 NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 On February 8, 2000, the Company announced its decision to close its San
 Fransisco operation and to reduce the number of employees throughout the
 Company.  The one-time costs related to the closure of the San Fransisco
 location are estimated to be $20 million and include restructuring costs, asset
 impairment charges, facility disposition costs, severance costs and expected
 operating losses of the San Fransisco operation in the third quarter of fiscal
 2000.  Approximately $10 million of this total will be recorded as
 restructuring and asset impairment costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2000.
 In addition, the Company estimates that it will record a $2 million pre-tax
 restructuring charge in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 related to the
 employee reductions.
