Hello experienced and talented Excel people.
Example. I am working for a company and I have segments, brands and variants.

Example:
Segment:Coffee, tea, chocolate

Brands: coffee--> Nescafe, ground coffee
Tea --> green tea, freshly cut leaf
Chocolate ---> white, dark, 100 cocoa

Variants:
coffee: Cold coffee, hot coffee, on the rocks coffee
Tea: aromatic, arabian
chocolate: hot chocolate, cold, chocolate smoothie

then in excel, I will have a column with Coffee, Tea, Chocolate. How can i do a logical check and return back with an array( meaning, I need all the variants that fall under the segment)
If i have a cell with "coffee", i need to write a formula that returns with an array having "Cold coffee, Hot coffee, on the rocks coffee"

Is it possible?

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
