Wonton Food was started in 1973 by Ching Sun Wong in the basement of a small store in New York City’s Chinatown. Since then it has become the largest manufacturer of noodles, wrappers, and fortune cookies in the United States.

Dozens of workers in white caps supervise the production line at Wonton Food’s factory around the clock, six days a week at the world’s largest producer of fortune cookies. Demand is high. After all, what would dinner at a Chinese restaurant be like if the cookies, with their bits of wisdom and philosophy, didn’t arrive with the bill? The family-owned–and-operated Wonton Food was founded by Ching Sun Wong, 78 and semi-retired, who was born in China’s Guangdong province and came to the United States in the 1960s. Ten years later, he opened Wonton Noodle Co., a basement factory with a shop upstairs, in New York’s Chinatown. After running it for 20 years, he bought a small Chinatown fortune cookie factory. “The equipment was old–fashioned,” says Wonton Food manager Weilik Chan. “We designed and made new machines ourselves.”
Thanks to the Brooklyn-based Wonton Food company, China will soon have fortune cookies.
