Frequently Asked Questions
Question: So, do I get ten different sayings per set?
Answer: Yes. There are ten unique sayings per set. However, each set includes the same ten sayings. Purchasing two sets will not result in your receiving twenty different sayings. Rather, you will have two each of ten fortunes.
Question: What if I decide to not peek at the sayings and then decide they're stupid after I purchase them?
Answer: We find that scenario extremely hard to believe. However, due to the nature of food products, we cannot accept returns on this item. Therefore, if you're overly concerned about the content of the sayings, we suggest that you take a peek prior to purchasing.
Question: What do they taste like?
Answer: Unfortunate Cookies taste exactly like the fortune cookies you would find at any Chinese food restaurant.
Question: So, all you did was come up with some sayings and have a fortune cookie company put them into a box? Couldn't I just do this myself?
Answer: Technically speaking, yes, we developed the sayings and hired a fortune cookie company to perform the customization. In order to make the costs reasonable, we purchased thousands of cookies. So, while you could do this yourself, you couldn't do it for what we're charging. Sorry if we sound snarky, but we're just keeping it real.
Question: Aren't you (Vat19) writing these FAQs? Why would you even bring up the previous question?
Answer: We're dumber than we look?
Question: Can I customize the sayings? What if I buy, like, a dozen sets?
Answer: We cannot perform any customization. Sorry! You're stuck with our sayings. But, they're awesome. So, just click that "Add to Cart" button and enjoy your Unfortunate Cookies.
