title: Laravel decrypt issue
body: <p>I have a problem with decrypting some values that I have just recently tried encrypting. I've generated the key <a href="https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/encryption" rel="nofollow noreferrer">as stated in the docs</a>.</p>
  
  <p>And I've imported my values with my controller as the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public function importEquipment (Request $request)
                                                                  {
      if($request-&gt;file('imported-file'))
        {
                  $path = $request-&gt;file('imported-file')-&gt;getRealPath();
                  $data = Excel::load($path, function($reader) {
                      })-&gt;get();
                      if(!empty($data) &amp;&amp; $data-&gt;count()){
                          foreach ($data as $key =&gt; $value) {
                              Equipment::create([
                                'active' =&gt; $value-&gt;active,
                                'licensePlate' =&gt; encrypt($value-&gt;licensePlate),
                                'notes' =&gt; $value-&gt;notes,
                                'purchaseDate' =&gt; $value-&gt;purchaseDate,
                                'titleNumber' =&gt; encrypt($value-&gt;titleNumber),
                                'tires' =&gt; $value-&gt;tires,
                                'unit_type' =&gt; $value-&gt;unit_type,
                                'unitTypeLabel' =&gt; $value-&gt;unitTypeLabel,
                                'unit_id' =&gt; $value-&gt;unit_id,
                                'VIN' =&gt; encrypt($value-&gt;VIN),
                                'year' =&gt; $value-&gt;year,
                                'customerID' =&gt; 1,
                              ]);
                          }
                      }
                  }
          Session::flash('flash_message','Equipment successfully imported!');
          return back();
      }   
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As you can see there are three values that I chose to encrypt, and it looks like they are successfully generated in their longtext fields.</p>
  
  <p>However, when I go to access the "index" of equipment through my site, I get something like this <code>eyJpdiI6Im5IUnFkdEFNS3JDV1RQajdyQVZMMEE9PSIsInZhbHVlIjoiYWZGYXU0Y1dTcG5aOEFWbHI0amR6QT09IiwibWFjIjoiNzkwNWQ1YzYwOGJjZjdmMTc1Zjg0ZTVmNWZkMjViY2M5YjA5OTM4MGJhYjE1YjNkYTQ5ZjI0MDg2M2YxM2EyZiJ9</code> when I print the following <code>{{$equipment-&gt;VIN}}</code>, but when I do <code>{{decrypt($equipment-&gt;VIN}}</code>, nothing appears.</p>
  
  <p>Am I doing something wrong with the decryption and is there an appropriate way for this with decrypting in a <code>@foreach</code> environment?</p>
