That first one is a full thrift shop romcom waiting to happen.

So, about that first one. My first reaction was like, are you supposed to steal the girl's shoe and keep it? Or maybe just "borrow" it and stealthily get it back to her after you're done infusing it with bits of love shrubs?
But then I went to check what kind of plant rue is. Turns out it's generally quite toxic and any part of the plant may cause ugly skin reactions just on contact.
Magic!

Yeah, roux is a French word for red, either an orange-y kind of red, as in red hair, or in that case, turning to a reddish color (often through heating). That's what happens when you heat butter (or another kind of fat) in a roux.
I don't think either rue or roux will be very appreciated when the lady gets back her shoe.

I think the artist could have stopped after the second panel and it still would have held its own very well.

Cheese is a myth pushed by big dairy to sell moldy milk

Some things are better with cheese.
IMDB: Goat Story (2008; user rating 33%, or 39% at ČSFD, see also popular YouTube review)
IMDB: Goat Story 2: with Cheese (2012; user rating 36%, or or 45% at ČSFD, see also popular YouTube review)
No, "goat" does not stand for "greatest of all time" (as you might have guessed) but it's the name (and species) of the main supporting character. In fact, "goats" (kozy in Czech) means "boobs", which is where a major part of the first film's humor comes from and probably why the Shrek donkey ripoff is specifically a goat.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
Rules
*� Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
*�️ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
*� Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
*�️ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
*� Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
- Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
- When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
*� Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
*�☠️ Internationalization (i18n)
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
*� Moderation
- We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
- When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists
The following artists are banned from the community.
- Jago

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Web Accessibility
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)
