Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Fortune cookies are an authentic part of traditional Chinese cuisine?

No. A reference article states fortune cookies are not Chinese in origin and were most likely popularized by Japanese immigrants in the United States, and a history article traces them to Japanese immigrant bakers in California rather than traditional Chinese cuisine.
