FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FOODARAMA SUPERMARKETS, INC. REPORTS
THIRD QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS  RESULTS


      Freehold, N.J., September 14, 2004 -- Foodarama Supermarkets, Inc.
(ASE-FSM) today announced that sales for the 13 weeks ended July 31, 2004
totaled $302,799,000, compared to $271,333,000 in the prior year period. Same
store sales from the twenty one stores operated in both periods increased 1.0%
period to period. Sales for the current quarter included the operations of new
locations in North Brunswick, Hamilton, Lawrenceville and Aberdeen, New Jersey
opened in May 2003, October 2003, April 2004 and May 2004, respectively, as well
as the location in Bordentown, New Jersey purchased from Wakefern Food
Corporation in June 2004. The location in Aberdeen replaced an older, smaller
store in the same location and the location in North Brunswick replaced an
older, smaller store in Franklin Township, New Jersey.

      In the current quarter net income was $496,000 or $.48 per diluted share.
The Company's earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization
("EBITDA") for the third quarter ended July 31, 2004 were $10,756,000.

      For the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2003 net income was $576,000 or
$.57 per diluted share. The Company's EBITDA for the third quarter ended August
2, 2003 were $8,947,000.

      Sales for the 39 weeks ended July 31, 2004 were $876,557,000 compared to
$783,002,000 in the prior year period. Same store sales from the nineteen stores
operated in both periods increased 2.5% period to period. Sales for the current
39 week period included the operations of the new Woodbridge, Ewing, North
Brunswick, Hamilton, Lawrenceville and Aberdeen, New Jersey locations as well as
the location in Bordentown, New Jersey. The Woodbridge and Ewing stores opened
in December 2002 and January 2003, respectively. The location in Woodbridge
replaced an older, smaller store in the same location.

      For the 39 weeks ended July 31, 2004 the Company reported net income of
$2,692,000 or $2.62 per diluted share. The Company's EBITDA for the nine months
ended July 31, 2004 were $31,666,000.

      For the 39 weeks ended August 2, 2003 net income was $1,053,000 or $1.04
per diluted share. The Company's EBITDA for the nine months ended August 2, 2003
were $23,303,000.


      EBITDA is presented because management believes that EBITDA is a useful
supplement to net income and other measurements under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States since it is a meaningful measure of a
company's performance and ability to meet its future debt service requirements,
fund capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. EBITDA is not a
measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States and should not be considered as an alternative to (i) net
income (or any other measure of performance under generally accepted accounting
principles) as a measure of performance or (ii) cash flows from operating,
investing or financing activities as an indicator of cash flows or as a measure
of liquidity. The following table reconciles reported net income to EBITDA:
