How to delete a range of records at once on MySQL?

Question

I have rows over 60000 in my table. How can I delete rows from 40000 to 50000 at once?

Answer 1

Table: grocery

id  item  
----------            
1   rice
2   soap
3   rice
4   rice

DELETE FROM 'grocery' WHERE item="rice" LIMIT 2;

This is easier than all the other ideas. for this particular item , there are 2 records can be deleted.

And the answer is,

2 rows deleted.

SELECT * FROM grocery;

id  item    
----------         
1   rice
2   soap
