About this listen

 We crack open the crispy shell of the fortune cookie to reveal a history that has nothing to do with China and everything to do with a Japanese temple tradition. Join us as we trace the journey from Kyoto to California, revealing how World War II and a shift in American taste buds created the ultimate culinary half-truth.
