Need some good fortune for my fortune cookies biz

    Hello all.

    I make fortune cookies for a living and am in the process of rounding up some fun fortune cookies quotes to put in my database. These quotes will be used for cookies that I sell to gas stations and clubs as a "gag fortune". You know that last thing you would expect a fortune cookie message to say. So maybe some funny fortunes you can think of.

    Have at it!

    What about allowing custom fortune cookie quotes, that might open a new audience for you - promotional items ;-)

    You should try other shape such as circle or rectangular.
    And you can export to other country if you have recipe to extend the shelf life of your cookies

    So use the cookies as a way of learning words or phrases? This is a great idea. Where could I market this?

    so go and conquer them for your business:D you could aks a few restaurant owners to try them for a reduced price and if the customers like them raise prices and go on producing more and market them

    Can't compete with the crappy cookies the restaurants buy, but great idea as far as a test market!

    like my grandfather used to tell me: " you'll never know, until you try!" maybe you should also contact restaurant owners outside the US and ask them to test your cookies and if customers like them :D or whoever will sell the cookies :D
