I don’t remember, I just remembered reading that both of those were made by some Chinese immigrant that started a “Chinese food” shop in San Francisco, some time in the 1930s or so.

Fortune cookies were originally Japanese, but when the Japanese were sent to the internment camps, the Chinese opportunistically began serving them in their restaurants on the West Coast
