The good Kyoto ones are far from flavourless, with a rich cinnamon taste. The nama ones are even better - my wife is addicted to the ones you can get with just the skin, not the filling, and every time I am in Kyoto I don't even need to ask what she wants me to get. Never had a fortune cookie myself - I think they're US only or something. Don’t you be knocking Yatsuhashi mate. The good Kyoto ones are far from flavourless, with a rich cinnamon taste.
