About
Wow, The Fortune Cookies Here Really Are More Accurate refers to a quote and exploitable image macro taken from a 2005 episode of The Simpsons. The meme depicts Homer Simpson reading a fortune cookie to Marge's sister Selma, saying to her in the scene that the fortune cookies in China are more accurate than in the ones in the U.S. Meme creators, originally on Reddit in mid-2021, started replacing the text of Homer's fortune to read humorously accurate statements to their liking.
Origin
The Simpsons episode that the meme template originates from is called "Goo Goo Gai Pan" and it is the 12th episode of the 16th season, originally airing on March 13th, 2005.[1] However, it wasn't until June 18th, 2021, that the scene was first made into a meme template by Redditor TheGigEconomist within the /r/MemeTemplatesOfficial[2] subreddit, earning roughly 3,600 upvotes over the course of eight months (shown below, left).
Redditor Solid_Snark was then the first to make a meme using it on June 18th, posting it to /r/PrequelMemes, [3] a subreddit known for its Star Wars centric content. The meme (shown below, right) referenced the Sith never turning Anakin to the Dark Side but rather the Light Side turning Anakin dark, receiving roughly 51,200 upvotes over the course of eight months.

Spread
The day after the above meme was posted, June 19th, 2021, Redditor SpaceGordonRamsay uploaded an exploited version of the template to /r/Memes, [4] being the first creator to make a variant. The meme (shown below) received roughly 33,200 likes over the course of eight months.
