Jason Darling <p><strong>Why should I buy Misfortune Cookies?</strong><br /> Misfortune cookies are great pranks- swap &#8216;em out for one of the cookies at your next Chinese dinner &amp; watch your friend/co-worker/husband freak out. Or to pass out at parties. Or to give as a gift- they&#8217;re under $10, so they&#8217;ll work as white elephants! Or if you&#8217;re a weird, lonely dude who just wants to eat his sad way through a box of fortune cookies, alone, while watching a rerun of <em>Charles in Charge,</em> that&#8217;s cool (but we don&#8217;t really want to know).</p> <p><strong>Are your fortunes accurate?</strong><br /> While there have been no conclusive studies proving that our fortune cookies accurately predict the future, or even the present, there have been no conclusive studies proving that they <em>don&#8217;t</em>, either. However, as diehard realists, we feel that our fortune cookies present a more accurate predictive tool than all fortune cookies that have come before.</p> <p><strong>How do Misfortune Cookies taste?</strong><br /> They taste like fortune cookies, which is to say, they taste good provided you like fortune cookies. That said, we use quality ingredients and baking methods, and the cookies reflect that, so if you&#8217;re the type who tends to <em>crave</em> fortune cookies, we&#8217;ll be a good fix.</p> <p><strong>How are Misfortune Cookies packaged?</strong><br /> Cookie Misfortune packages our cookies in quart Chinese takeout boxes at 10 cookies to a box. All the cookies are individually wrapped in blank wrappers so your friends won&#8217;t see what&#8217;s coming.</p> <p><strong>What <em>are</em> the Misfortunes?</strong><br /> There&#8217;re a lot, and they range from the quotidian <em>(Fuck you)</em> to the particular <em>(You will die alone and poorly dressed)</em> to the classical <em>(Life is nasty, brutish, and short)</em>. You&#8217;ll never get two of the same in any given box of ten.
