Fortune cookies are made with sugar, flour, oil, and vanilla. The recipe for fortune cookies is based on a Japanese cracker. They are flat cookies that have a fortune placed in the center, are folded over, and then the ends are brought together. Fortune cookies were introduced in the first part of the 20th century in the United States. It is interesting to note that they are not found in China, only in Chinese restaurants in the United States. The fortunes are written on a slip of paper and may have words of wisdom, a prophecy, or lucky numbers. Sometimes there is a Chinese phrase and its translation. Insidermonkey make a list of most common fortune cookie sayings.
Most of us enjoy Chinese food, but what we enjoy even more are the fortune cookies that we get at the end of the meal! Whether we actually eat the almond or vanilla flavored cookie is not important, what matters to most of us is the small paper inside with either a prediction or a saying. Whether they are inspirational quotes, funny quotes or romantic fortune cookies quotes, we all love reading them! What's even more interesting to know is that these sayings were not even created in China! There are two versions on the origin of fortune cookies. Some say that these sayings were invented in California, U.S.A. by a man named David Jung who owned the Hong Kong Noodle company. He began serving cookies with biblical sayings in them. Another version claims that fortune cookies were made in Japan. Researchers have gathered information which shows a man, in a picture book from the nineteenth century, making cookies. Well, wherever it was created and whoever made it, we all love them!
