Although fortune cookies are associated with Chinese restaurants, they were first produced in the United States by Japanese American bakeries. The dessert most likely originated from a type of cracker that appears in Japanese illustrations from the 1800s. Today, however, the Japanese origin of the fortune cookie is largely unknown. This knowledge was likely lost during World War II, when the American government forced Japanese Americans to move out of their homes, abandon their jobs, and relocate to internment camps. In their absence, Chinese-owned bakeries began to manufacture the fortune cookies. And Chinese restaurants, which had become more popular with Americans since the war began, seized the opportunity to add the cookies to their menus.
