so anywayz what's the origin of fortune cookies? just wondering...
It was invented in 1916 by George Jung, a LA noodlemaker. ;) I only heard this one, so it's a guess. :-"
So you thought Fortune Cookies came from China?
Wrong! They originated right here in San Francisco.
Fortune cookies are widely believed to be the invention of Makota Hagiwara, manager of Golden Gate Park's Japanese Tea Garden in 1909
Sure it did Alan. :lol:

"taken from a website about fortune cookiesQuote:
Perhaps the most plausible story dates back to 1918 when, in Los Angeles, David Jung, founder of the Hong Kong Noodle Co., invented the fortune cookie as a sweet treat and encouraging word for unemployed men who gathered on the streets. Some claim the cookie was more likely invented as a gimmick for Jung’s noodle business than as an icon of social concern. "
ok...
:P
