NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


Note 1    Basis of Presentation

The  unaudited  Consolidated  Condensed  Financial  Statements  as of or for the
period  ended July 29, 2000 have been  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial  information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and rule 10-01.  The balance sheet at October 30, 1999
has been taken  from the  audited  financial  statements  at that  date.  In the
opinion of the management of the Company,  all adjustments  (consisting  only of
normal   recurring   accruals)  which  are  considered   necessary  for  a  fair
presentation of the results of operations for the period have been made. Certain
financial  information and footnote  disclosures  normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have been  condensed  or omitted.  The reader is  referred  to the  consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's annual report
on Form 10-K for the year ended October 30, 1999.

Effective  October  31, 1999 the Company  adopted the  Last-in-First-Out  (LIFO)
method of inventory  valuation for its grocery and nonfood  inventory items. The
Company  believes  that the LIFO  method as  applied  to these  inventory  items
results in a better  matching of revenues and expenses.  Because the October 30,
1999  inventory  valued at the  First-In-First-Out  (FIFO) method is the opening
LIFO  inventory,  there is neither a cumulative  effect to October 31, 1999, nor
pro forma amounts of retroactive application of changing to the LIFO method. The
decision  to  change to LIFO was made in the third  quarter.  The  effect of the
change on the three months and nine months ended July 29, 2000 was to reduce net
income  $100,000 ($.09 per share) and $300,000  ($.27 per share),  respectively.
The effect of the change on the first  quarter  ended  January  29,  2000 was to
decrease net income $100,000 ($.09 per share) to $784,000 ($.70 per share).  The
effect of the change on the second  quarter ended April 29, 2000 was to decrease
net income $100,000 ($.09 per share) to $335,000 ($.30 per share).

If the FIFO  method had been used,  inventory  at July 29,  2000 would have been
$500,000 higher.

Certain  reclassifications  have been made to prior year financial statements in
order to conform to the current year presentation.

These  results  are not  necessarily  indicative  of the  results for the entire
fiscal year.

Part I - Item 2  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Financial Condition and Liquidity

The Company is a party to a Second  Amended and  Restated  Revolving  Credit and
Term Loan Agreement ("the Credit Agreement") with three financial  institutions.
The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and
provided  for a total  commitment  of up to  $55,000,000,  including a revolving
credit facility ("the Revolving  Note") of up to $25,000,000,  a term loan ("the
Term Loan") in the amount of  $10,000,000  and a capital  expenditures  facility
("the Capex  Facility")  of up to  $20,000,000.  As of July 29, 2000 the Company
owed $9,000,000 on the Term Loan and $7,160,721  under the Capex  Facility.  The
Term Loan is to be paid in quarterly  payments of $500,000  through December 31,
2004. The revolving credit facility also matures December 31, 2004 and the Capex
facility  provides for the payment of interest only on its outstanding  balance,
an  unused  facility  fee of .50% for the first two years of this loan and fixed
quarterly  principal  payments  thereafter  based on a seven  year  amortization
schedule with a balloon  payment due December 31, 2004.  Interest rates float on
the revolving  credit  facility,  Term Loan and Capex  Facility at the Base Rate
(defined below) plus .50%, .75% and .75%, respectively The Base Rate is the rate
which is the greater of (i) the bank prime loan rate as  published  by the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or (ii) the Federal Funds rate, plus
 .50%.  Additionally,  the Company  has the  ability to use the London  Interbank
Offered  Rate  ("LIBOR")  plus  2.50%  to  determine  the  interest  rate on the
revolving credit facility and LIBOR plus 2.75% to determine the interest rate on
the Term  Loan  and  Capex  Facility.  The  Credit  Agreement  contains  certain
affirmative and negative covenants which, among other matters, will (i) restrict
capital expenditures, (ii) require the maintenance of certain levels of earnings
before interest,  taxes,  depreciation  and amortization  less rent payments for
capitalized lease locations  ("Adjusted  EBITDA") and (iii) require debt service
coverage and leverage ratios to be maintained.

The Company's  compliance  with the major  financial  covenants under the Credit
Agreement was as follows as of July 29, 2000:

                                                  Actual
Financial               Credit                   (As defined in the
Covenant                Agreement                 Credit Agreement)
---------               ---------                ------------------

Adjusted EBITDA          Greater than $13,000,000    $ 18,594,000
Leverage Ratio           Less than 3.00 to 1.00      1.47 to 1.00
Debit Service Coverage
 Ratio                   Greater than 1.10 to 1.00   1.65 to 1.00
Adjusted Capex           Less than $6,750,000  (1)   $  4,258,000 (2)
Store Project Capex      Less than $14,800,000 (1)   $  8,696,000 (2)

          (1)  Represents limitations on capital expenditures for fiscal 2000.
               Adjusted Capex is all capital expenditures other than
               New/Replacement Store Project Capex.

          (2)  Represents capital expenditures for the 39 weeks ended July 29,
               2000.

No cash dividends have been paid on the Common Stock since 1979, and the Company
has no present intentions or ability to pay any dividends in the near future on
its Common Stock. The Credit Agreement does not permit the payment of any cash
dividends on our Common Stock.

Year 2000

The Company and Wakefern did not experience any material adverse effect on store
or warehouse  operations as the result of the impact of year 2000 ("Y2K") issues
on our computer  based  systems and  applications.  In  preparation  for the new
millennium all critical  systems were made Y2K  compliant.  The costs related to
the Y2K  project  were  included  in the normal  operating  results  and capital
expenditures  of  both  the  Company's  and  Wakefern's  Information  Technology
Departments  and did not have any  material  effect on the  Company's  operating
results.  The  Company  does  not  currently  expect  any  Y2K  problems  to  be
encountered for the remainder of the year 2000 that would have a material effect
on the operating results of the Company.

Working Capital

At July 29, 2000,  the Company had a working  capital  deficiency  of $4,136,000
compared to working  capital of  $2,507,000 at October 30, 1999 and a deficiency
of $10,702,000 at July 30, 1999. The decline in working capital from October 30,
1999 was primarily due to the collection of $1,802,000 of current  related party
receivables  which were used to reduce the Revolving Note which is classified as
long-term borrowings and the net increase of $5,897,000 in accounts payable over
the increase in inventory  which relates  primarily to cost of  merchandise  and
operating expenses for the new Branchburg and Wall Township,  New Jersey stores,
which when paid, will increase the Revolving Note. The Company normally requires
small  amounts  of  working   capital  since  inventory  is  generally  sold  at
approximately  the same time that  payments to Wakefern and other  suppliers are
due and most sales are for cash or cash equivalents.

Working capital ratios were as follows:

      July 29, 2000        .94 to 1.0
      October 30, 1999    1.05 to 1.0
      July 31, 1999        .83 to 1.0

Cash flows (in millions) were as follows:

The Company had  $20,900,000 of available  credit,  at July 29, 2000,  under its
revolving credit facility.  The amount available under the Credit Agreement will
adequately meet our operating  needs,  scheduled  capital  expenditures and debt
service for fiscal 2000 and 2001.  For the thirty nine weeks ended July 29, 2000
depreciation  was $8,458,000  while capital  expenditures  totaled  $12,954,000,
compared to $8,154,000 and $6,402,000,  respectively,  in the prior year period.
The increase in depreciation was caused by the addition of two new locations and
two additional capital leases in fiscal 2000 .

Results of Operations (13 weeks ended July 29, 2000 compared to 13
                       weeks ended July 31, 1999)

Sales:

Same store sales from the twenty  stores in operation in both periods  increased
2.5%. Sales for the current quarter totaled $228.5 million as compared to $203.2
million  of sales in the  prior  year  period.  Sales  for the  current  quarter
included the operations of two new locations  opened in February and April 2000.
The location opened in April 2000 replaced an older, smaller store.

Gross Profit:

Gross  profit  on sales was 26.0% of sales in both the  current  and prior  year
periods. Patronage dividends,  applied as a reduction of the cost of merchandise
sold,  were $1.5 million in the current  period versus $1.4 million in the prior
year  period.  Improved  product  mix  and  reduced  Wakefern  assessment  as  a
percentage of sales, was offset by decreased patronage dividends as a percentage
of sales and the adoption of the LIFO method of inventory  valuation for grocery
and nonfood inventory items.

Operating Expenses:

Operating,  general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales were 24.7%
versus 25.0% in the prior year period.  The decrease in  operating,  general and
administrative expenses, as a percent of sales, were due to decreases in certain
expense  categories as a percentage of sales. As a percentage of sales,  selling
expense decreased .78%,  administration decreased .31%, occupancy decreased .18%
and other expense,  including  insurance,  decreased .10%.  These decreases were
partially  offset by  increases  in labor and related  fringe  benefits of .44%,
supplies  of .10%,  reserve for closed  store  expense of .43% and a decrease in
other  income of .09%.  The  increase  in reserve  for closed  store  expense is
related to the anticipated expenses to be incurred over the balance of the lease
for the location closed in April 2000 when the new Wall Township store opened.

Interest Expense:

Interest  expense  increased to $1,958,000 from $1,366,000 while interest income
was  $63,000  compared  to $74,000 for the prior year  period.  The  increase in
interest  expense  for the  current  year  period was due to an  increase in the
average outstanding debt, including increased capitalized lease obligations, and
an increase in the average interest rate paid on debt.
Income Taxes:

An income tax rate of 40% has been used in the current year period compared to a
rate of 34% in the prior year period based on the expected effective tax rates.

Net Income:

Net income was  $636,000 in the  current  year period as compared to $421,000 in
the prior  year  period.  Earnings  before  interest,  taxes,  depreciation  and
amortization  ("EBITDA")  for the  thirteen  weeks  ended  July  29,  2000  were
$6,089,000 as compared to  $4,885,000  in the prior year period.  Net income per
common share, both basic and diluted, was $.57 in the current period compared to
$.38 in the prior year  period.  Per share  calculations  are based on 1,117,290
shares outstanding in both periods.


Results of  Operations  (39 weeks ended July 29, 2000 compared to 39
                         weeks ended July 31, 1999)

Sales:

Same store sales from the twenty  stores in operation in both periods  increased
4.1%.  Sales for the stores in operation for the current thirty nine week period
totaled  $661.9  million as compared to $602.3  million of sales from the stores
operated in the prior year period. Sales for the current thirty nine week period
included the operations of two new locations  opened in February and April 2000.
The location opened in April 2000 replaced an older, smaller store.

Gross profit:

Gross profit on sales decreased to 25.9% of sales compared to 26.1% in the prior
year  period.  Patronage  dividends,  applied  as a  reduction  of the  cost  of
merchandise  sold, were $4.3 million  compared to $4.1 million in the prior year
period.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales declined primarily as a result of
decreased patronage dividends as a percentage of sales, promotional programs for
the new locations opened in the current year period,  the completion of Wakefern
incentive  programs for the new locations opened in fiscal 1998 and the adoption
of the LIFO method of inventory  valuation  for grocery and nonfood  categories,
partially  offset by improved  product mix,  reduced  Wakefern  assessment  as a
percentage of sales and Wakefern incentive programs for the new locations opened
in fiscal 2000.

Operating Expenses:

Operating,  general and administrative expenses as a percent of sales were 24.8%
versus 25.1% in the prior year period.  The decrease in  operating,  general and
administrative  expense, as a percent of sales was primarily due to decreases in
certain  expense  categories as a percentage of sales. As a percentage of sales,
selling  expense  decreased  .46%,   administration  decreased  .09%,  occupancy
decreased  .19%,  other  expense,  including  insurance,   decreased  .09%,  and
depreciation  decreased .07%. These decreases were partially offset by increases
in labor and  related  fringe  benefits of .19%,  supplies of .05%,  pre-opening
costs of .13% and reserve for closed store  expense of .15%.  Pre-opening  costs
were for the new  Branchburg  and Wall  township  stores  opened in February and
April 2000,  respectively.  The reserve for closed store expense  relates to the
anticipated  expenses  to be  incurred  over the  balance  of the  lease for the
location closed in April 2000 when the new Wall Township store opened.

Interest Expense:

Interest  expense  increased to $4,936,000 from $4,182,000 while interest income
was $208,000  compared to $225,000  for the prior year  period.  The increase in
interest  expense for the current  year period was due to an increase in average
outstanding  debt,  including  increased  capitalized  lease  obligations and an
increase in the average interest rate paid on debt.

Income Taxes:

An income tax rate of 40% has been used in the current year period compared to a
rate of 34% in the prior year period based on the expected effective tax rates.

Net Income:

Net  income  was  $1,755,000  in the  current  year  period.  This  compares  to
$1,333,000  in  the  prior  year  period.   Earnings  before  interest,   taxes,
depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the current period were $16,624,000
as  compared  to  $14,838,000  in the prior year  period.  Net income per common
share, both basic and diluted, was $1.57 in the current period compared to $1.19
in the prior year period.  Per share  calculations are based on 1,117,290 shares
outstanding in both periods.

Exhibit - 18

Letter Re Change in Accounting Principles

September 11, 2000

To the Board of Directors
Foodarama Supermarkets, Inc.
922 Highway 33
Freehold, N.J. 07728

Dear Directors:

This letter is written to meet the  requirements of Regulation S-K calling for a
letter from a  registrant's  independent  accountants  whenever there has been a
change in accounting principle or practices.

We have been informed that,  effective October 31, 1999, the Company changed its
method  of  determining  the cost of  inventory  for its  grocery  and  non-food
inventories from the first-in first- out (FIFO) method to the last-in  first-out
(LIFO) method.  According to the management of the Company,  this change results
in a better matching of revenues and expenses in these categories.  In addition,
the change will enhance the comparability of the Company's financial  statements
by changing to the method utilized in its industry.

A complete  coordinated set of financial and reporting standards for determining
the  preferability  of  accounting   principles  among  acceptable   alternative
principles  has not been  established  by the  accounting  profession.  Thus, we
cannot  make an  objective  determination  of whether  the change in  accounting
described in the preceding paragraph is to a preferable method. However, we have
reviewed the pertinent factors,  including those related to financial reporting,
in this particular case on a subjective  basis,  and our opinion stated below is
based on our determination made in this manner.

We are of the opinion that the Company's change in method of accounting is to an
acceptable  alternative  method of  accounting,  which,  based upon the  reasons
stated for the change and our discussions with you, is also preferable under the
circumstances  in this  particular  case. In arriving at this  opinion,  we have
relied on the business judgment and business planning of your management.

We have not audited the  application of this change to the financial  statements
of any period. Further, we have not examined and do not express any opinion with
respect to you financial statements for the nine months ended July 29, 2000.

Very Truly Yours,
AMPER, POLITZINER & MATTIA
