Where was the Fortune Cookie invented?ChinaNorth KoreaUnited StatesVietnam******** ((((The correct answer is Japan. I have contacted the list publisher)))) Answer: Contrary to popular belief, the fortune cookie did not originate in China. It is actually an American invention that originated in California. In 1914, a Japanese-American named Makoto Hagiwara of the Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco introduced the first fortune cookie. Although a number of families in Los Angeles, primarily of Japanese descent, have also claimed credit for inventing the cookie, a federal judge of the Court of Historical Review determined that the cookie originated in San Francisco and acknowledged Makoto Hagiwara as its creator.
