Inside of the cookie is a piece of paper with a message on one side and lottery numbers on the other.
Fortune cookies didn’t originate in China though, they originally were made in Japan in the 19th century. The Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco is reported to have been the first place in the U.S. to have served the modern version of the cookie back in the 1890s.
Around WW2 Chinese companies started making fortune cookies instead of the Japanese. This is due to the fact the Japanese population was interred in camps during that time.
