| The Killing of a Chinese Cookie (DVD) | By Derek Shimoda.
For nearly a century, people have turned to this prophetic dessert for advice, inspiration and even winning lottery combinations.
While the fortune cookie has been a source of fascination and a Chinese cuisine staple in North America, it remains non-existent in China. The Killing of a Chinese Cookie examines the heated debate over the true origin of the fortune cookie, the mixing of eastern and western cultures that produced it, and the cookie's rise from a simple pastry to a pop culture phenomenon.
Running time: 75 min.
