Would your kids like this for Halloween?

No, my daughter would not want a fortune cookie, lol.

Candy. They want candy.

My kids would love them!

OMFG. More lame Japanese shit. No. No kid wants your fortune cookies. They want chocolate. Snickers, Reeses , Hershey Etc.

I believe fortune cookies are actually American but attributed to the Chinese if you want to get technical. My kids just want the fortunes. I think all in all they'd prefer the candy.

They are originally from Japan, brought to California by Japanese-Americans, and then they were changed to the American version we know today by Chinese-American chefs. That is why they are served in both Chinese and Japanese restaurants. The poster is just bitter because some for some reason get triggered by me having my culture as a part of my life. You can talk about your lasagna and burgers all you want, but if I share that we are having udon for dinner, I'm just trying to be obnoxious.

You learn something new every day. I think yds would like it and I'd be the one eating them. They can always get candy from other people lol.

I make Indian and Thai food for dinner often, and I’m white. No one appears to judge me. Perhaps it’s the way you’re presenting it.

Seems like a good way to make a big mess, kids will throw the wrappers all over the place along with the fortune papers and they won't eat the cookies either. Just get a little bit of candy and then shut off your light once you run out or get a lot and if you have extra send it to one of those programs that sends it to our soldiers.

Please tell me in what way am I presenting it poorly in this post. Because this is how I normally present it. And it be honest, you don't know how people would react to you if you ever mentioned that you weren't white.

A fortune cookie wrapper is no different than a candy wrapper, why is one messier than the other? I'm not trying to argue, I truely don't get that.

I said “perhaps.” Calm down - it was just a thought.

And buy some candy for trick or treaters. Everything else aside, the owners of the restaurant have been very generous to your family. Don’t take more from them in the form of free fortune cookies.
