About this listen
What if eating out didn’t have to mean guesswork, panic stations, or playing carb-count roulette? This week I’m joined by Chris Cheyette - the dietitian behind Carbs & Cals, aka the holy grail of visual carb counting. We talk about how a simple idea (snapping photos of real food) turned into books, an app, and a resource that’s helped thousands of us feel more in control, less restricted, and way less alone. Chris shares how it all began - DIY shoots in home kitchens, and the lightbulb moment that changed everything. We dive into diabetes tech, food habits, cultural representation, fast food menus, subscription models, and the realities of building something that’s not just for Type 1s, but for anyone who wants to understand food better. This one’s about inclusion, confidence, and designing tools that meet us where we are... whether that’s a McDonald’s or a Michelin-starred restaurant. If you’ve ever panicked over pasta, this one’s for you.
