"Food is the main event. It’s how I show love, how I connect with people."

When the pandemic hit, Devin—like so many of us—found herself spending more time at home and turning to comfort foods she loved most. Pasta had always been at the top of that list. But as the months went by, the scale crept up, and she decided to make a change. Determined to feel better while keeping her favorite meals on the menu, she tried every low-carb alternative she could find. None of them hit the mark—until she stumbled upon a single Reddit comment recommending Carbe Diem.
What started as a skeptical taste test quickly became a daily ritual. Devin and her husband both loved it—so much so that now, she keeps a container of cooked Carbe Diem pasta ready in the fridge at all times. For her, it’s not just about macros or calories—it’s about joy, connection, and the experience of sharing a meal she truly loves. Whether she’s making a weeknight spaghetti and meatballs, a bright lemon veggie pasta, or her famous pasta salads for friends, Carbe Diem lets her embrace her inner foodie without compromise.
As she puts it, “Food is the main event. It’s how I show love, how I connect with people.” And thanks to Carbe Diem, she can do that freely again—no guilt, no sacrifices, just pasta the way it’s meant to be enjoyed.
Devin's favorite way to enjoy Carbe Diem pasta is garlicky spinach & tomato pasta with rotini noodles.
