I’ve always taken the fortunes I discover within these post-meal delights to heart. In fact, I might even keep specific fortunes in my wallet for extended periods, sometimes even years.

I still come across old fortunes hidden in coat pockets and purses. It’s amazing how these tiny, crinkled papers manage to withstand months, or even years, without fading!

According to proper fortune cookie etiquette, you should always take and eat the cookie that’s pointing in your direction. Call me superstitious, but I believe that a destiny-defining dessert should be taken seriously.
