Basic Trope: Goats are Extreme Omnivores.
- Straight: Gertrude the goat often eats tin cans and other garbage.
- Exaggerated: Gertrude can even eat non-tangible items.
- Downplayed:
- Gertrude has a tendency to chew on almost anything, but she doesn't necessarily eat it.
- Most of what Gertrude eats is still edible, but she still eats things that most animals wouldn't eat.
- Justified:
- Truth in Television, to an extent; goats will often try to eat non-edible items.
- Gertrude isn't an ordinary goat, and therefore is able to eat items that a regular goat couldn't.
- Inverted: Goats are Picky Eaters.
- Subverted: ???
- Double Subverted: ???
- Parodied: ???
- Zig-Zagged: ???
- Averted: There are no goats in the work.
- Enforced: ???
- Lampshaded: ???
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: Gertrude is able to clean up a polluted area by eating all of the garbage.
- Defied: The farmer avoids letting Gertrude get near any non-food items.
- Discussed: "You better be careful where you put your stuff around this farm, or the goat will eat it."
- Conversed: "Cartoons tend to portray goats as being able to eat anything, can they really do that in real life?"
- Played for Laughs: Gertrude makes a stunt out of eating anything and everything she can.
- Played for Drama: Gertrude eats something plot-relevant, such as the Macguffin.
- Played for Horror: Gertrude is a Gruesome Goat who tries to eat anything in her path... which may even include the main characters.
