   Item 5. Other Events


     On November 29, 2000 Foodarama  Supermarkets,  Inc.  issued a press release
which set forth the following information:

     Foodarama  Supermarkets,  Inc.  (ASE-FSM)  stated that Big V  Supermarkets,
Inc., a member of the Wakefern Food Corp.,  has filed for  reorganization  under
Chapter 11 of the U.S.  Bankruptcy Code and has publicly indicated its intent to
depart  from  Wakefern  Food  Corp.,   the  entity  that  provides  Big  V  with
distribution,  marketing and back office support. The bankruptcy filing was made
by Big V only and does not involve Wakefern or Foodarama.

        In a separate press release,  Wakefern stated that Big V is a party to a
supply  agreement  with  Wakefern  that  requires  Big V to give  notice  of its
decision to leave the  cooperative  and to pay a substantial  fee to Wakefern to
make up for the loss of volume to the cooperative.  Wakefern also stated that it
assumes that Big V will honor its contractual  commitments to Wakefern, and that
Wakefern will take all  appropriate  actions to enforce its rights if Big V does
not comply with its obligations.

        Foodarama is a member of the Wakefern cooperative. It is not possible to
predict at this time what  effect the  reported  actions of Big V will have upon
Foodarama.
