MVC set cookie not getting full string

My cookie will not set the full string "A&B". When I request it, I only get "A". Do I need to wrap it with something so it reads the "&", as I wonder if this character is breaking it.

controller:

Response.Cookies["Order"]["PrincId"] = model.Princ_ID.ToString();

view:

var session_princid = Request.Cookies["Order"]["PrincId"];
@session_princid

Try @Html.Raw(session_princid) – Mate Feb 13 '15 at 04:03
nope. that didn't work. – user1929393 Feb 13 '15 at 04:15
maybe wrap the model.Princ_ID.ToString() in something? – user1929393 Feb 13 '15 at 04:16
Yes, because it saves to my database before I set cookie and in the database it says "A&B" – user1929393 Feb 13 '15 at 04:19
I am using MVC5, when I replace with "A&B", I just get "A". I have tried using something else and it works with other values like "ABC". For some reason it does not like '&' sign. – user1929393 Feb 13 '15 at 04:33
