Fancy Fortune Cookies *giveaway*

I've always liked opening the fortune cookies at the end of a Chinese meal. However, I've never liked actually eating the cookies. I think they're pretty bland and icky. But when the makers of Giant Fortune Cookies and Fancy Fortune Cookies contacted me about trying their unique version of the traditional fortune cookie I couldn't resist. They are so colorful and come in so many delicious tasting flavors like Cherry Bliss and Cool Cappuccino.

So what did I think once my samples arrived? Well, they're as pretty in person as they are online. The colors are very vibrant. The taste? Well, I didn't try them all, but I loved, loved, loved the Toasted Coconut flavor. It was awesome! The Minty Mint was rather tasty too. The "Oh, Wow!" Orange was zesty and the perfect after dinner treat on a hot summery night.

I was curious though, who came up with these colorful creations? So I read a little about it and it turns out a former clown from Indiana named Mike Fry started making these. He got the idea in 1987 and after a lot of hard work and failed attempts he came up with his first successful flavored fortune cookies and it's taken off from there. Now you can customize not only which flavors you want but you can decide what you want on the fortunes inside from personalized messages to company logos. The options are limited only by your imagination and the size of the message.

And now I have some fantastic news...one lucky Red Sox Mommy will win 100 personalized fortune cookies of the winners choice (excluding chocolate dipped)!!! They will be shipped ground to the US or Canada (sorry international and island dwellers).

To enter, visit Fancy Fortune Cookies and look at all the yummy flavors. Then come back here and leave a comment telling me which flavor you'd pick. Also, leave a valid email address or have one in your Blogger profile so I can contact you if you win.

For more entries you can do one or more of the following after doing the above requirement:

- Again, while you're looking around Fancy Fortune Cookies take a look at their celebrity clients and leave a comment naming one of them (1 entry)
- Visit their other site Giant Fortune Cookies then come back here and leave a comment telling me which one looks the yummiest to you (1 entry)
- Blog about this giveaway (5 entries, leave 5 comments)
- Follow me on Twitter (@RedSoxMommy) and tweet about this giveaway, you can do this one once per day, just leave a comment each time (1 entry each time)
- Add my button to your blog (2 entries, leave 2 comments) or add my URL to your blogroll (1 entry)
- Become a follower (on Blogger) or subscriber (1 entry)
- Enter any of my other giveaways (see left sidebar) (1 entry for each one you enter, just leave a comment letting me know which one you entered)

Disclaimer: You must have a US or Canadian mailing address (where ground shipping is available). You must leave a valid email address so I can contact you if you win. I will not use the addresses for any other purpose. You must follow the first entry requirement before any extra entries will be counted as valid. No "count me in" style comments will be qualified to win, please follow the directions. You have until July 8, 2009 at 11:59pm MT to enter. I will choose the winner at random soon after that time and s/he will have 72 hours to respond to the winning notification or a new winner will be chosen by the same method. The winner's address will be given to the sponsor so they can mail out the prize. No one related to me may win.

Good luck!
