What alternative methods can be used to access cookie information if it is not immediately readable in PHP?

If cookie information is not immediately readable in PHP, an alternative method to access it is to use the $_COOKIE superglobal array. This array contains all the cookies sent by the client and can be accessed by key to retrieve the cookie value. 

// Accessing cookie information using the $_COOKIE superglobal array
if(isset($_COOKIE['cookie_name'])) {
    $cookie_value = $_COOKIE['cookie_name'];
    echo "Cookie value: " . $cookie_value;
} else {
    echo "Cookie not found";
}
