About Fortune Cookies

Fortune cookies are crisp, sugary cookies usually made from flour, sugar, vanilla, and sesame seed oil with a "fortune" wrapped inside. A "fortune" is a piece of paper with words of wisdom, an aphorism, or a vague prophecy.

While commonly associated with Chinese cuisine in the United States, fortune cookies actually originated in Japan. They were brought to the US by Japanese immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, they are a fun tradition enjoyed by millions around the world at the end of a meal.
