Mysql Adding data to row without replacing existing data

Adding data to row without replacing existing data I  have a column  in a row with value 'White' and want to update it to 'Not White'. The following query will change the value from 'White' to 'Not White' i.e. UPDATE table SET color = CONCAT( 'Not ', color) WHERE id=1 Now the column will have the value 'Not White'. And if I want to append the new value at the end, change the parameters order in the  CONCAT()  function. UPDATE table SET color = CONCAT( color, ' Not') WHERE id=1 Now the column will have the value 'White  Not '.
