Intersting fact about Fortune Cookies

  1. Many people mistakenly think that so famous Fortune Cookies are a long Chinese tradition and this is why you always see them in Chinese restaurants. But, it is not true. Fortune Cookies were invented only in 1920, considering how old Chinese culture is, 1920, is very resent date. They were invented by a worker in the Key Heong Noodle Factory in San Francisco. I was not able to find if a worker was actually Chinese or not, so it is possible that so famous Fortune Cookies were not even invented by Chinese.
