Good Luck Biscuits

I remember the first time I actually got a fortune cookie, 2 or 3 years' back on a trip to the US - "Ah, finally," I thought, "The fabled fortune cookie that doesn't exist back home in (Singaporean) Chinese culture.". It was kind of fun, cracking it open, and getting the slip of paper, all the while wondering which entrepreneurial Chinese immigrant had come up with these and hoodwinked a whole generation or two of Americans into thinking that this was what the Chinese folk back home did.  :)
