I have the following information to dynamicaly display:

Product XYZ

Very nice

Very good

Very cool

Those Very nice, very good, very cool are advantages of a given product, textual, description advantages, normally display in a form of bullets.

I guess that it makes no sense to store those on a separate table called advantages, because it will never be used to anything else despite display, and I fill it as too overkill.

So I was thinking about creating a varchar255 field on this product table, and allow values to be inserted like:

Very nice;Very good;Very cool

On a free-form text input field.

Then split those on a php array.

My question is: Is it out there, a better approach ?
