Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

“It’s hard to imagine a food having a greater impact than the potato,” Qian said.

I'm thinking coconut. Definitely hurts more

Oh, that's a good thought.

Hmm.

I guess it depends on how you measure "impact". I think that coconut would probably win if you talk impact on specific societies -- I mean, there's less of a replaceable staple food -- but the potato has had larger impact in terms of scale; more people in the world rely on the potato.
