If I have some text in a cell, how can I find the number of times another piece of text appears in it?

For example, suppose A1 contains Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.. pick occurs 2 times in this string. What formula can I put in A2 so that it counts the occurrences of pick and returns 2?
