If you're willing to go to a page on the website from which you want to
do fine-grained cookie deletion first, then you can do it using the
browser's developer tools: press F12, go to the Storage tab, and you'll
find individual cookies listed under Cookies.  You can use the
right-click context menu to delete individual cookies.
