When I was younger I used to believe that goats actually ate tin cans and garbage. Now that I have my own goat as a pet I know for sure they don't!
For those of you that believe they do eat garbage, let me correct you, they don't! Although occasionally the curious goat will chew on clothes, paper, and other objects, not actually eat and digest them.
