如何在 Presto SQL 中使用 NOT LIKE 和 % 从搜索中排除项目？

Question

I have the following query that returned an error: mismatched input 'LIKE'. Expecting: expression

select * from sales
where item_name NOT LIKE '%Tortoise%' 

The image below illustrates what I want to get from my source data. I want records that do not contain the keyword "Tortoise".

Appreciate any advice on how to correct this syntax, thank you.

This may get you the expected result.

select * 
from sales
where item_name NOT IN (
   select * 
   from sales
   where item_name LIKE '%Tortoise%'
)
