Splitting a String and Compare

Question

I have a string as sample="food/drink/dessert" 
 1) I need to split this string at "/" into an array or list 
 2) I need to check if another string say mychoice (which has value as "drink") exists in sample array (mentioned above) 
 How can I achieve both the tasks (without using for loop) in One Identity Manager? Is there any list or contains method which can be used here?

 If sample . Split( "/"c ) . ToList() . Contains( "drink" ) Then

 End If
