TEXT and BLOB types can store large amounts of data.

You would use these types when you want to store images, sounds, or large amounts of text, such as Web pages or documents.

You can think of a TEXT or BLOB as a very large VARCHAR.

They are processed more slowly, and they take up large amounts of space.
