No, it did not refer to cookies in a figurative sense, but to a particular type of file used in computing, specifically by browsers and websites, to allow a user to correctly view the contents of the site and beyond.
In addition to improving your browsing experience on a site, cookies also constitute a “bridge” to provide consent to the use of your personal data.
