That depends on how you store the data in the cookie.
I find it comfortable to store the elements of the cookie separated by pipes - '|'.
e.g: setcookie('crispy', $session_id . '|' . $charnick, etc');
This way you have a reference point to every element of the cookie.
So in the script you can just do this:
$cookie_data = explode('|', $crispy);
$session_id = $cookie_data[0];
$charnick = $cookie_data[1];
