Yum Dragon Introduces Politically Inspired "Misfortune Cookies" - A Unique Twist on Tradition

Honolulu, HI - June 30, 2023 - Yum Dragon, the innovative ice cream and dessert company, is proud to announce the launch of its latest creation, the world's first politically inspired "Misfortune Cookies." These new fortune cookies feature quotations from Sun Tzu's "The Art Of War" and Mao Tse-tung's "Quotations from Chairman Mao Zedong," commonly known as the Little Red Book.

Richard H. Davis, the founder of Yum Dragon, believes that fortune cookies should reflect the cultural and historical influences of China, aligning with President Xi Jinping's vision of a "rich and powerful" China. While traditional fortune cookies often featured Confucian phrases about life, Davis recognizes the shifting societal landscape under Chairman Mao, who declared Confucianism as counterrevolutionary.

"The invention of the fortune cookie may be attributed to the Japanese, but it was the Chinese-American culture that truly explored its potential," said Richard H. Davis. "Fortune cookies have become an integral part of Chinese-American dining experiences, unique to the United States and not found in China."

Davis sees an opportunity to introduce fortune cookies to the Chinese market in a new and innovative way. To address the challenge of language barriers and cultural differences, Yum Dragon is considering alternative approaches such as fortuneless cookies, where fortunes can be delivered digitally via email or text. This virtual twist on the traditional Chinese fortune cookie experience can provide a fun and engaging way for individuals to receive their fortunes.

Additionally, Yum Dragon is exploring the concept of incorporating different denominations of bills, ranging from two-dollar bills to 100-dollar bills, inside fortune cookies. This Las Vegas-themed fortune cookie experience adds an element of surprise and excitement for customers.

While "Misfortune Cookies" featuring quotations from Sun Tzu and Chairman Mao are the latest addition to Yum Dragon's unique offerings, the company is also known for its Jewish Fortune Cookies (Kosher) and Bible Verse Fortune Cookies. Yum Dragon continues to push the boundaries of tradition and innovation to create delightful and thought-provoking experiences for its customers.

Yum Dragon believes that the introduction of politically inspired "Misfortune Cookies" will spark interest and engagement among individuals who appreciate the historical and cultural significance of these influential works. By incorporating political quotes into fortune cookies, Yum Dragon aims to encourage discussions and reflections on various ideologies.
