Cookie AutoDelete is fighting an uphill battle. Everybody knows what a video is, but web cookies remain mysterious to most people on the web. Cookie AutoDelete trashes unused cookies when you close a tab, giving users the ability to easily assume different identities while surfing.

Fun Fact: According to Nestle, the most popular cookie in Idaho is oatmeal chocolate chip. In Maine, it’s molasses.
