SPICA: Revolutionizing Dieting with Flavorful Solutions

Matsukiyo Cocokara & Company, a major drugstore chain in Japan with over 3,600 locations across the country and an expanding presence in Asia, is committed to transforming lifestyles and nutrition. Under its diet and daily care brand, SPICA, the company has recently launched an innovative food substitute that aims to redefine dieting without sacrificing taste: the "SPICA Watashi Yorokobu Pasta." This exciting new product, available from October 10, 2026, is designed for those who want to enjoy rich flavors while maintaining their dietary goals.

The philosophy behind SPICA is to cater to the needs of those who don’t want to compromise on food during their diets. Launched in May of this year, SPICA has already made its mark with six carefully crafted products, including shakes and supplements. The initial response exceeded expectations, demonstrating a strong market interest in tasty, diet-friendly alternatives.

Delicious and Satisfying Pasta

The new SPICA pasta represents the second wave of their product launch and combines high satisfaction with fiber and protein to ensure a wholesome meal experience. It’s a convenient food substitute that requires only hot water; within three minutes, you can have a fulfilling bowl of low-calorie, low-fat soup pasta.

This innovative product features penne pasta and comes as an assortment of seven packs, offering two delicious flavors: "Rich Carbonara" and "Shrimp-infused Tomato Cream." Each serving is enriched with a unique ingredient known as "Yeast Cell Wall," which ensures that every sip of soup is enjoyable until the last drop. This blend of flavors and healthful ingredients makes it an ideal choice for a quick lunch or a simplified dinner, perfectly supporting an easy-to-follow diet routine.

Unique Ingredient: Yeast Cell Wall

The yeast cell wall is a proprietary ingredient developed after years of research by the Asahi Group. It’s a byproduct of yeast extract production and is rich in dietary fiber and protein, making it a valuable supplement for those looking to enhance their nutritional intake while dieting. This unique formulation helps in reaching dietary objectives without feeling deprived.

Product Highlights

• - Affordable and Easy Preparation: Offered at approximately 460 yen per meal, the cooking process is as simple as pouring hot water into the provided container and adding the powder sauce after three minutes, enabling you to enjoy a gourmet-style soup pasta even on busy days.
