Grep -v value in 2nd column
Trying to do a grep -v on a value in the 2nd column of text. So if the word apple appears in a line in the 2nd column, it would not show up when the file was cat. Seems like a simple enough operation but I just can't figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Code:
Are apples good for you. Are pears better for you. Is beer an alternative.

The output would be
Code:
Are pears better for you.  Is beer an alternative
