Nathan's inclination for performative displays of a very disjointed kind coupled with his total lack of business acumen makes it seem like the man's always secretly yearned to be a carnie, more specifically the one in the center of attention as he proudly strolls through the amusement park in his extravagant orange fursuit.
I did wonder if that was Nathen himself wearing the suit. And nothing else, of course.

WORLD'S FIRST mail order lasagna, maybe.

Until UPS or whoever get very annoyed at squashed rotting lasagna and melted ice contaminating other mail they deliver.

That's presuming anybody actually orders one.
There have absolutely been mail-order lasagnas available for ages. SA's favorite food site even has several.
https://www.goldbelly.com/search?q=lasagna

I think it's pretty much guaranteed the mail-order Garfield Eats lasagnas are some other pre-existing lasagna with just a different cover slapped on it. According to the box picture at https://garfieldeats.com/product/frozen-big-cow-lasagna/ it's manufactured by a company called Winona's Harvest, which Google suggests is the same as this company: https://prettospasta.com/. However they don't appear to do direct mail order, so I guess Nathen is innovating.

I’m just so curious how Nathen’s father talks about him to other people.

Also I noticed the “jikes” thing going back to early November on the official Twitter so I guess that’s what he’s going with.
Maybe he didn't license the rights to Jinkies with the other Scooby items so he had to come up with a similar-but-legally-distinct phrase, like when a DVD company buys the rights to a show but can't include the original music.

My guess is that his heart is still with garfield, and he's just going through the motions with scoob while secretly pining after his lost love.
He was renting the brown suit, the orange suit has to win because it's the only one he owns.

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)
I tracked this down further up the thread, you're correct.

However "Big Cow" is all Nathen, as the actual manufacturer appears to be a real respectable business. The orange sauce is probably his too, just plopped on the noodles in their factories.
