I love Chinese Food, and I especially love getting that Fortune Cookie that they bring at the end of the meal, or you save till last if it's delivered. Not necessarily to eat, but to get the fortune. I rarely eat the cookie because it doesn't really taste like much. I have always wondered why they couldn't make those taste better. Well, a man named Mike Fry from Fancy Fortune Cookies felt the same way about the taste of Fortune Cookies and did something about it. In 1987 he quit his job as a Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus clown and spent his time contacting several Chinese Fortune Cookie companies but it wasn't until the 9th company
would someone listen to him. The next 2 years was a "frustrating and expensive learning curve". He invented the first flavors in the Chinese-only industry and those flavors were: Strawberry, Lemon, Blueberry, Orange, and Mint. Since then he has added 12 more flavors. Fancy Fortune Cookies also have chocolate c
overed Fortune Cookies that they hand dip in white or milk chocolate. They have special shipping instructions that you will find on the Fancy Fortune Cookies website. If you have a special occasion Fancy Fortune Cookies has a special cookie just for that occasion. It's a little over 1 pound and complete with your personalized fortune. It is also chocolate dipped and decorated so special shipping instructions may be found on Fancy Fortune Cookies website. These cookies are so good that even people like Ossie Osborne, Oprah Winfrey, Donald Trump, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Joan Rivers, Magic Johnson and more used these cookies for special events.
I was so lucky because Fancy Fortune Cookies sent me some cookies to try out for myself. They arrived in a small cardboard box, wrapped in bubble wrap and not one was cracked or broken. I was quite impressed by that as I know the packages get thrown around a lot. It was a beautiful array of colors.
I received many delicious flavors:
Blueberry
Strawberry
Orange
Coconut
Chocolate
Cappuccino
Mint
Fruit Punch
They were fantastic. I thought wow someone finally did it. I enjoyed all the flavors, I enjoyed the Blueberry the best. I'm not a big fan of Mint so it wasn't my favorite. My Boyfriend preferred the Coconut. If they sent these cookies with the Chinese food around where I live, I would be ordering delivery every night.
Now for the good part. Fancy Fortune Cookies is giving one of my lucky readers 100 assorted cookies, excluding the chocolate covered.
All that is required is: (AND THESE ARE MANDATORY!)

The coconut flavoured cookie would suit my tastes. I'd have the fortune printed with the words "WEREWOLF REVIVAL". Such a fortune is meant to trigger an atavistic state of mind.

Lemon sounds like it would be a very interesting flavor for a fortune cookie. I'd choose that one first, but there are many that I would love to try. My fortune would say, "I would have left this blank, but that would have been a waste of paper." Just because it would be funny :)
kanderspina~at~yahoo~dot~com
Would love to try the Lemon Fortune Cookie---I love lemon!
I would choose the Cappuccino Fortune Cookie with the message, "Congrats on Opening!" for my mother's cafe opening. :)
I would choose lemon and mine would say "Happy Birthday Hawwah!" for my sister's birthday party.
I would choose the chocolate (not chocolate covered) or the lemon and have the fortune say "Thanks for coming to my birthday party" and use them at my son's upcoming bday party!! That would be unique and a kid pleaser I'm sure.
Thanks so much!
