Oh, found the issue: Laravel apparently uses and requires encrypted cookies. This is, obviously, not ideal (for my current needs).
Next question: is there anyway to disable cookie encryption?
Cross-compatibility with CodeIgniter is currently a requirement. We can add it back once we migration, but right now it needs to work both ways.
Solution: I removed this line from Http\Controllers\Kernel:
'Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\EncryptCookies',
