DECEMBER 31, 1994

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include Stokely-Van
Camp, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Quaker Oats Company,
or "Quaker") and its subsidiaries (the "Company").  The condensed
consolidated statements of income and reinvested earnings for the six
and three months ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, the condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1994, and the condensed
consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended December
31, 1994 and 1993, have been prepared by the Company without audit.
In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows as of December 31, 1994 and for all periods
presented.  All adjustments made have been of a normal recurring nature.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted.  The Company believes that
the disclosures included are adequate and provide a fair presentation
of interim period results.  Interim financial statements are not
necessarily indicative of the financial position or operating results for
an entire year.  It is suggested that these interim financial statements be
read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes
thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1994.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to
the current presentation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Six Months Ended December 31, 1994
Compared With Six Months Ended December 31, 1993

Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 1995 were $470.7 million,
up 1 percent over last year's $466.3 million.  Volume was even with
the prior year.  Volume increases in GATORADE thirst quencher in the
United States and in export sales were offset by decreases in VAN CAMP's
products.  The change in sales in GATORADE relative to volume was
also affected by product mix.  Price increases did not have a significant
impact on sales.

Gross profit margin decreased to 46.1 percent of sales from last year's
48.0 percent primarily as a result of increased distribution costs.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to $211.1
million, or an increase of 19 percent, mainly due to higher advertising
and merchandising (A&M) expenditures for GATORADE thirst quencher in
a period of competitive expansion of the category.  GATORADE thirst
quencher volume in the United States was up 1 percent from the prior year's
strong first half.

The Company's reengineering programs are proceeding as planned.  The
Company will continue to focus on efficiency initiatives to improve its
manufacturing, marketing, logistics and customer service processes while
lowering costs and to more effectively utilize human and financial
resources.  These continuous improvement initiatives may lead to charges
in future periods.

The effective tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 1995 was 39.6
percent compared to 40.5 percent in the first six months of fiscal 1994.
The decrease mainly resulted from a catch-up adjustment recorded in the
first quarter of fiscal 1994 related to the U.S. statutory tax rate increase.

Three Months Ended December 31, 1994
Compared With Three Months Ended December 31, 1993

Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 were $119.9 million, up
1 percent from last year.  Volume increased 1 percent.  Volume increases
in GATORADE thirst quencher in the United States were partially offset
by decreases in VAN CAMP's products.  Price increases did not have a
significant impact on sales.

Gross profit margin decreased to 36.9 percent of sales from last year's 42.2
percent mainly as a result of increased distribution costs.  SG&A expenses
increased to $72.6 million, or an increase of 11 percent, primarily due to
higher A&M expenditures for GATORADE thirst quencher.

The effective tax rate for the second quarter fiscal 1995 was 40.6 percent
as compared to 44.2 percent in the second quarter fiscal 1994.  The change
relates mainly to the tax treatment for operations in Puerto Rico and the
second quarter loss position.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities of $73.8 million and $88.6 million
for the six months ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively, was
well in excess of the Company's dividends and capital expenditures.  Capital
expenditures for the first six months of fiscal 1995 and 1994 were
$19.6 million and $9.8 million, respectively, with no material individual
commitments outstanding.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
(continued)



The Company has an investing and borrowing arrangement under which it loans
its available cash to Quaker or borrows its short-term cash requirements
from Quaker.  Certain subsidiaries of the Company currently maintain
cash balances.  The amount due from The Quaker Oats Company increased
$82.2 million primarily reflecting changes in accounts receivable.

Accounting Change

Effective July 1, 1994, the Company adopted FASB Statement #112, "Employers'
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits."  The cumulative effect of adoption
was a $1.5 million after-tax charge in the first quarter of fiscal 1995.
The adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on operating
results or cash flows in fiscal 1995 or in future years.
