∙ 13y agoThe fortune cookie as we know it was invented by Makoto Hagiwara. He introduced the cookie in his Tea Garden in San Fransisco in the late 1890's to the early 1900's. However, he based his design on the Japanese traditional cookie called Tsujiura Senbei (辻占煎餅). These were small cookies with a bend and a small fortune called an omikuji (御御籤) folded into the bend.
