Fortune cookies were likely created in the early 20th century in California, with their origins often attributed to Japanese immigrants. They were designed as a fun novelty item to accompany meals, particularly in Chinese restaurants, and they typically contain a slip of paper with a fortune or wise saying. The cookies gained popularity as a way to enhance the dining experience and provide a light-hearted element of surprise. Over time, they became a staple in American Chinese cuisine, though they are not traditionally part of Chinese culture.
