Farm To Table For All Ages: How Nathen Mazri Is Transforming The Food Industry
Agencies
Fri, July 16, 2021, 3:25 AM·3 min read

Attaching a cartoon character onto a brand may signal unhealthy or unclean food, but Scooby Doo Eats, under their owner Nathen Mazri, is here to break that stigma. With their certified clean labeled food, Scooby Doo Eats brings farm to plate to a whole new level. There are no preservatives in the food that they produce, and no tempered ingredients. With burgers sourced from heritage farmers, the produce is raised without any antibiotics. This means that the cows that the beef patties are coming from are pasture raised, with 400% more vitamins and a 30% increase in Omega-3 and Omega-6. Anyone who is choosing the delicious burgers from Scooby Doo Eats can rest assuredly and know that there are no steroids, hormones, and that the livestock is fed solely grass from birth to end of life. These delicious, clean, and healthy patties are sure to leave you and your family satisfied.



Commitment to the Environment


Social responsibility by corporations and companies is on the forefront of many issues tackled by society today. Scooby Doo Eats is committed to implementing safe and sustainable practices on their farms. Whether it be talking about it in a video, or using sustainable techniques, there is always a theme of social and environmental responsibility. One practice that sets them apart from other meat distributors is their usage of regenerative farming.

Artisan Farms are located in Canada and they were founded by the Nolan Family. Since they use regenerative farming, their farms have increased biodiversity, which means there are a wider variety of plant and animal species that are able to flourish on their land. Not only is there more wildlife and a better ecosystem, but regenerative farming brings about water cycle improvement. By helping water and aiding in the cycle process, Scooby Doo Eats and its associated farms are serving the environment and all those who live near the farms. Since sustainability is clearly their forte, it makes sense that these heritage farmers would not use slaughter techniques and care about animal welfare. Through these safe and sustainable, animal friendly practices Scooby Doo Eats is environmentally sound and sustainably delicious. This ensures a worry-free meal to anyone wanting to stay away from unclean or irresponsibly harvested food.


Contributing to Awareness

Not only is Scooby Doo Eats committed to their farming practices, they are contributing to the awareness of individuals as well. Trying to create a healthier, more sustainable society is different for everyone. Recently, Mazri and his company donated funds for a documentary to be made that was all about regenerative agriculture. Directed by Vampire Diaries Star Ian Somerhalder, “Kiss the Ground” was created to capture the attention of the general public. By making charitable contributions to this film, it is evident that Mazri and his team are undoubtedly dedicated to alerting everyone as to what is and is not a sustainable form of farming.

If he's stuck selling the exact same food forever then he should just brand it with his own name and image instead of a revolving door of dead cartoon franchises. Just picture it, "Nathen Mazri Big Cow Lasagne" with his rictus-like face on the packaging.

Yeah that's the crazy part right? Since he was just slapping new labels on old lasagnas, he could have taken the opportunity to rename it "Scooby Snacks Lasagna" or literally anything other than "BIG COW".

No sane man would slap Big Cow on he own lasagna

(serious answer: I am guessing he's sourcing these frozen meals from a place that already churns them out, then packing them in his own branding, and not actually developing proprietary frozen lasagna recipes for his cartoon restaurant, so maybe? He DID put effort into his Arbuckle sauce, after all)

My secret theory is that he was trying for a Simpsons 'Don't Have a Cow!' licensing deal and trademarked the name before realizing that he was entirely up his own rear end, and now he's trying to spin his cow-based property to recoup

It really is just delightful that the "random hot sauce that, technically, is from Scooby Doo" makes a cameo on the packaging. I mean, I am sure the logic is that now rather than being Garfield's personal orange secretions that the orange lasagna goo is now "Flame 'n' Fortune," but still

Nathen isn't sane. It's entirely possible he came up with the big cow lasagna himself, trademarked it, hired a place to churn them out, and now he's stuck rebranding it like Pizza Pockets doing promotional tie-ins with different cartoons. Even if he didn't have the rights to any cartoon characters he could probably still sell those frozen lasagnas on their own if he simply labeled them as Big Cow Lasagna without anything else on the package.

He gazed up at the enormous Scoob. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden behind the panting tongue. O cruel, needless GMOs! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the farm2plate! Two beef-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over Garfield. He loved Big Cow Lasagna.

What's the name of that cartoon that has one character who's a walking talking pizza slice, and one who's a cup? That would be some on point branding.

I read a review of GarfieldEATS somewhere online a while ago where the reviewer claimed the ice in theIr package mostly melted in transit and the food was part thawed. They said they ate it anyway and were not impressed.

The problem is nobody would buy frozen lasagna unless there’s a popular cartoon character on it, that’s Marketing 101.
