Hi there! I'm new to Airtable and trying to figure out how everything works. Let's say I have a cell that as the following information I inserted below: 

Beef Onion Burgers with Pickles

Ingredients:
2 hamburger patties
1 onion, diced
2 tablespoons ketchup
4 slices pickles
2 hamburger buns

How can I separate all of the text to the left of the word  "ingredients" into one cell? I basically am trying to extract the name of the recipe into its own cell.

Try something like:

LEFT(
{Full Text},
FIND(
"Ingredients",
{Full Text}
) - 1
)

 Which will give you this:

Sure, to do that put the formula above inside a `TRIM()`
