Help querying for a term inside a longer string.

So here's my query:

SELECT * FROM `table` WHERE zip = 'xxxxx'  AND 'query' IN (string)

 

the only problem is that the "string" is a row in the database with 'query', 'query1', 'query2', etc...  Mysql doesn't allow you to use a database row with the IN () 

I hope this makes sense...basically I have a field in the db with "'xxxx', 'afd', 'akjdf', 'adkjfj', 'etc'"  and i'm trying to take a search term 'xxxx' and see if it is in that field. make sense?  please help!  Is there another query I could use?
