Foodie Friday – Fortune Cookies



Fortune Cookies are not traditional in China – but are traditional in Chinese restaurants in the US and elsewhere. It is thought by some that they were actually introduced by Japanese immigrants but production was taken over by Chinese manufacturers when Japanese people were interned during the war.


Apparently some cookies contain  a list of lucky numbers – and when those numbers came up in a lottery there were a lot of winners – since the same numbers recurred … not very lucky after all.

Apparently there is an ongoing meme where you add the words "in bed" to the end of the message with hilarious results.
