The Chinese cookie, often referred to as a fortune cookie, is a crisp and lightly sweet treat originating from Japanese bakeries in North America but commonly associated with Chinese-American cuisine. Made primarily of flour, sugar, vanilla, and sesame oil, these cookies are folded and baked to include a paper fortune inside. While their iconic design and accompanying fortunes make them a fun dining experience, their nutritional profile is centered around carbohydrates and sugars, with minimal protein and fiber content. Each cookie typically has around 20-30 calories, making it a low-calorie indulgence but providing little in terms of nutritional value. However, they are free from heavy fats and are a light dessert option when compared to richer alternatives. Their appeal lies in their novelty rather than health benefits, serving as a delightful and cultural addition to a meal rather than a nutritious snack.
