Do you think that Fortune Cookies are lucky? Or do you think that it’s a myth that the numbers in the back are lucky, or that the sayings are true? A Fortune Cookie usually entails premonitions about love, career, happiness and money. Is it a coincidence that five people in the United States won the Lottery by playing the numbers that they had on the back of the fortune they found in their cookies? According to The Fortune Cookie Chronicles written by Jennifer 8. Lee, this actually happened.
In the United States alone, “four million cookies a day- more than a million cookies a year”, are made. (Lee p. 273) Now, the next time you go out for Chinese, do you think you’ll play the numbers on the back of your Fortune Cookie…? Maybe your next fortune cookie will be your golden cookie!
