Vendor Spotlights

FaBene Organic Italian Food

About Us

I could’ve told you the kind of story Americans love: “My name is Antonella, I’m 46, I’m Italian, and I left my country to bring my grandma’s recipes to California. I cook with love because it reminds me of her. Italian food is the best in the world, and I’m here for you.”

But the truth is something else. I’ve always been straightforward, real, and a bit of a rebel.
I’ve never had a passion for cooking. If I had the choice, I always ordered delivery.
I worked across Italy in sales and consulting, constantly on the move. I ate in my car, in restaurants, wherever—but never in the kitchen.

Then I turned 40. Now came the reflux. Digestive issues. An autoimmune disease. And the realization that I could no longer eat whatever I wanted. That’s when I understood: something’s missing from the market. Ready-made food? Sure. But healthy, tasty, real? Grandma’s recipe might be delicious—but let’s be honest, it’s not balanced. And ingredients today aren’t what they used to be. If you don’t choose them carefully, they hurt you.

I was looking for meals that were ready, healthy, but flavorful. And no—“meal prep” with chicken and salad doesn’t cut it. Do we really all dream of cooking during the few spare hours we have? I don’t.

I wanted to build a company that lets me eat well whenever I want—without settling for bland or boring. That’s why I created FaBene, because I refuse to accept that “healthy” food has to be boring, expensive, or inaccessible.

We specialize in real, nutritious, and convenient Italian food—the kind of food that should be the standard but isn’t. We take classic Italian dishes and reinvent them with organic ingredients, no added sugar, high fiber, and a low glycemic index—so that people don’t have to choose between health and taste.

What sets us apart? We don’t sell “healthy” food. We sell smart food—food that works for your body, not against it.

If food isn’t delicious, people won’t eat it.
If food isn’t convenient, people won’t buy it.
If food isn’t nutritious, it’s just another problem disguised as a solution.

What am I most proud of?
That people who don’t even care about “healthy eating” try FaBene and love it.
That we are proving that food can be fast, good, and actually good for you.

-Antonella Mundo, Founder of FaBene
