Hello everyone, I am having problems working with request cookies on my project. I have a cookie collection with about 3 values a, b, and c.  
Then I try the following for instance:  
`$cookieCollection = $this->getRequest()->getCookieCollection();`  
`if ($cookieCollection->has('b')) {`  
`$cookieCollection->remove('b');`  
`}`  
After doing this the ‘b’ is removed only from this instance:  
`$cookieCollection`.  
But it is still there in `$this->getRequest()->getCookieCollection();`  
Now how do I update the `CookieCollection` so that ‘b’ will no longer exist anywhere in the entire site?

`$this->request = $this->request->withCookieCollection($cookieCollection);`

Thanks ADmad, for your response. But I have tried that, and it’s not working.

Both the request and the cookie collection are immutable objects, so in addition to what @ADmad said, you also need

`$cookieCollection = $cookieCollection->remove('b');`
