Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

          On November 16, 2005, TreeHouse Foods, Inc. (NYSE: THS) (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the intention of its Bay Valley Foods division to close its facilities in La Junta, Colorado by June 1, 2006. Also, on November 16, 2005, employees of the La Junta facilities were notified of the Company’s intentions.

          The closing of the La Junta facilities is the result of a reduction in the Company’s pickle business and a significant increase in overhead costs, making it necessary to consolidate the Company’s manufacturing network. Included in the estimated $13.7 million to $14.9 million fourth quarter pre-tax charge to operating income are cash expenditures of approximately $3.5 million. Included in the cash expenditures are estimated severance and benefit costs of $1.1 million, costs to remove, relocate and install manufacturing equipment at other Company facilities of $.5 million, costs to maintain and secure facilities prior to sale or other disposition of $.5 million, costs to terminate leases and contracts of $.4 million, and costs to transfer raw material and finished goods inventory to other Company facilities of $.3 million. The Company estimates that approximately $1.0 million of the cash expenditures will be incurred in 2006, $2.0 million will be incurred in 2007 with the remaining $.5 million incurred in 2007 and 2008.

          A copy of the Company’s press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
