    How do you remove a variable substitution command?

    I have some variable substitutions that I created that I no longer need. I can't figure out how to remove them, and I haven't been able to locate any instructions to do so.

    For example, I created a variable such as MAKEFILE="touch file1.txt touch file2.txt"

    Now I want to get rid of $MAKEFILE. How do I do that?
