Gee this tight little space churns out a lot of fortune cookies! The nice lady behind the counter gave the kids and me a little tour of where and how they make the cookies. We walked out with a big bag of cookie materials that didn't cut it to become full fledged fortune cookies. My daughter thought the process was interesting and enjoyed watching a cookie develop from the blob of dough dropped into the track taking it down through the mechanisms and taking shape into a cookie.
