        NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               (UNAUDITED)
                             MARCH 31, 1995
                                    
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 nine and three months ended March 31,1995
and 1994, the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1995,  and  
the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended 
March 31, 1995 and 1994, 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 March 31, 1995 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.

Note 3 - Accounting Change

Effective July 1, 1994, the Company adopted FASB Statement #112, "Employers' 
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits."  The cumulative effect of adoption was 
a $2.5 million pretax charge, or $1.5 million after-tax, 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.





Note 4 - Subsequent Event

On May 1, 1995, Quaker and the Company signed a definitive agreement to sell the
Van Camp's pork and beans business to Hunt-Wesson, Inc., a subsidiary  of 
ConAgra, Inc.  The sale is subject to certain conditions precedent, including 
receipt of appropriate regulatory approval.  The transaction is expected to  be 
finalized by the end of the fiscal year.

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND 
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  
                                  
Nine Months Ended March 31, 1995
Compared With Nine Months Ended March 31, 1994

Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 1995 were $689.2 million, up
5 percent over last year's $657.6 million.  Volume increased 4 percent.  Volume 
increases in GATORADE thirst quencher in the United States and in export sales 
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 45.9 percent of sales from last  year's 47.1
percent primarily as a result of increased distribution costs and product mix 
changes.  Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to 
$296.7 million, or an increase of 17 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 5 percent from the prior year.

Quaker has identified the need to further realign its physical and human 
resources to reduce overhead expenditures.  The actions to be taken will affect 
the Company and will result in a charge in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995.

The effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 1995 was 36.1 percent
compared to 40.2 percent in the first nine months of fiscal 1994.   The  change
relates mainly to the tax treatment for operations in Puerto Rico.

Three Months Ended March 31, 1995
Compared With Three Months Ended March 31, 1994

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 1995 were $218.5 million, up 
14 percent from last year.  Volume increased 11 percent.  Volume increases in
GATORADE thirst quencher in the United States and in export sales were partially
offset by decreases in VAN CAMP's products.  Price increases did not have a 
significant impact on sales.

Gross profit margin increased to 45.6 percent of sales from last year's 
45.0 percent primarily as a result of changes in domestic and export sales.
SG&A expenses increased to $85.6 million, or an increase of 12 percent, 
primarily due to higher A&M expenditures for GATORADE thirst quencher.

The effective tax rate for the third quarter fiscal 1995 was 33.3 percent 
compared to 38.8 percent in the third quarter fiscal 1994.  The change relates 
mainly to the tax treatment for operations in Puerto Rico.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities of $49.9 million and $89.0 million for
the nine months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, was in excess of 
the Company's dividends and capital expenditures.  The decrease in cash flow
from operating activities results from decreased net income and changes in
working capital.  Capital expenditures for the first nine months of fiscal 1995 
and 1994 were $41.0 million and $15.6 million, respectively, with no material 
individual commitments outstanding.

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 $32.6 million primarily 
reflecting changes in accounts receivable and inventories.  

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

or cash flows in fiscal 1995 or in future years.
