Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     (a) On May 18, 1999, Hain Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Hain
Acquisition") and wholly-owned subsidiary of The Hain Food Group, Inc. ("Hain"),
pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 6, 1999, by and among
Hain, Hain Acquisition and Natural Nutrition Group, Inc. ("NNG") (the "Merger
Agreement"), Hain Acquisition merged with and into NNG with NNG as the surviving
corporation (the "Merger").

     As provided in the Merger Agreement,

          (1) each outstanding share of the common stock, par value $.01 per
     share, of NNG ("NNG Common Stock") was converted into the right to receive
     a combination of (i) cash and (ii) a 7% subordinated convertible note due
     2004 (collectively, the "Notes");

          (2) each outstanding share of preferred stock was converted into the
     right to receive cash; and

          (3) certain options were converted into the right to receive a
     combination of cash and a Note and certain other options were converted
     into the right to receive cash.

     The Notes are convertible into shares of Hain common stock, par value $.01
per share ("Hain Common Stock"). The number of shares of Hain Common Stock to be
issued upon conversion of each Note will be based upon the conversion price
equal to the average of the closing prices of Hain Common Stock for the ten
trading days prior to any conversion of that Note.

     Hain has filed a Registration Statement (the "Registration Statement") on
Form S-3 to register up to 991,736 shares of Hain Common Stock to be issued to
holders of the Notes upon their conversion.

     In connection with the Merger, Hain entered into a Credit Agreement with
IBJ Whitehall Bank & Trust Company, as issuer and administrative agent for the
lenders named therein, and Fleet Bank, N.A., as syndication agent (the "Credit
Facility"). Under the Credit Facility, the term loan portion is $130 million and
the revolving line of credit is $30.0 million.

     Hain funded the cash consideration paid to holders of NNG Common Stock
through borrowings under the Credit Facility.

     (b) Assets constituting plant, equipment or other physical property
acquired by Hain (through its wholly-owned subsidiary Hain Acquisition) in the
Merger were used by NNG and




its subsidiaries in manufacturing. At the present time, Hain intends to use
these assets in the same manner in which they were used prior to the Merger.

Item 5.  Other Events.

     On May 19, 1999, Hain announced that it had consummated the Merger.

     Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the purchase price consisted of
$70 million in cash and a $10 million in Notes.

     A copy of a press release issued by Hain on May 19, 1999 is attached hereto
as Exhibit 20 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(a) Financial Statements of business acquired.

     The financial statements required by this Item will be filed by Hain by
amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K no later than August 2, 1999.
