Fortune cookies are crisp, thin cookies made from a simple batter of flour, sugar, vanilla, and sesame seed oil, often served at the end of a meal in Chinese-American restaurants. While commonly associated with Chinese cuisine, their origins can be traced to Japanese traditions and their development in the United States in the early 20th century. Each cookie contains a small paper slip with a fortune or saying inside, making them a playful and unique dining experience. Nutritionally, fortune cookies are low in calories and fat, typically containing fewer than 30 calories per piece. However, their sugar content, though modest, might not align with strict low-sugar diets. They provide minimal nutritional value, lacking significant amounts of protein, fiber, or vitamins. Overall, fortune cookies are an enjoyable, light treat intended more for amusement than sustenance, making them a relatively harmless indulgence when consumed in moderation.
