Dana Goldberg Confirms Vegan Lesbian Stereotype

With an introductory line in her bio that reads, “Raised by a wild pack of Jews, otherwise known as her mother and siblings, Dana Goldberg is a force of nature on stage,” you can see why Dana Goldberg is on the fast track to becoming one of the most famous comedians in the nation.

She made the cover of CURVE, the nation’s #1 selling Lesbian magazine, which has featured famous lesbians (AND VEGETARIANS!) K.D. Lang and Ellen DeGeneres in the past.

She’ll readily debunk the stereotypes about lesbians while acknowledging ones that are true-at least for herself. From Local-IQ.com:

“I also think a lot of people assume all lesbians are big, butch women wearing flannel and Crocs. Granted some of them do, but not all of us. I got rid of my flannel years ago!”

“I know a lot of people also think all lesbians play softball, work at Home Depot, get tickets every time Melissa Etheridge comes to town even though we’ve seen her 15 times, drive trucks and SUVs, have cats, only eat organic food, were once Vegans at some point in our lives and drink excessive amounts of beer. Okay all that’s true, I got nothin’.”

She loves vegetarian burritos and occasionally, sopapillas, but not too often.

“I don’t want my flannel shirts to get too snug,” she  joked.

Missy Higgins: They Think Fried Chicken Is Vegetarian

Missy Higgins

If you live in the US, traveling to some other countries can be a pain when it comes to finding good vegetarian food.

But, hey, who are the Americans to brag? There are still some places in the States where if you say, “Tofu,” they think you’re hurling an insult at them.

Singer-songwriter and musician Missy Higgins keeps her veganism while on tour, but that doesn’t mean it’s always easy to do, as she explained in the Minneapolis StarTribune.

Although the Australian born lady thinks the best thing about the US are its open minded people, one of the worst things is finding food in smaller towns.

“Their idea of vegetarian is fried chicken,” she said.

Poor thing!
