mysql> select array_contains([[1,2,3], [4,5,6]], [4,5,6]);
+--------------------------------------------+
| array_contains([[1,2,3],[4,5,6]], [4,5,6]) |
+--------------------------------------------+
|                                          1 |
+--------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> select array_contains([[1,2,3], [4,5,6]], [4,6,5]);
+--------------------------------------------+
| array_contains([[1,2,3],[4,5,6]], [4,6,5]) |
+--------------------------------------------+
|                                          0 |
