How do I block all cookies except a specific few sites?

I use Stumbleupon a lot, and this means that my cookie history is extremely laggy. What I want to do is to enable cookies for a few specific sites, and block the storing of cookies for all the others. How would I go about doing this? Thanks.

See Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track.

1. Under Options - Privacy,
a. Choose Firefox will: Use custom settings for history.
b. Uncheck Accept cookies from sites.
2. Click the Exceptions button.
a. Set up exceptions for the various sites where you want to accept cookies (e.g. support.mozilla.org). An Accept exception will keep the cookies until the site says they should expire, while an Accept for Session exception will keep them until you close Firefox.
