1,086 PointsOk I figured this out Thanks a ton... for your answer.
On TeamTreehouse: Error message is Bummer! Remember to reassign the menu variable with your joined string.
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white" sundaes = available.split(';') menu = "Our available flavors are: {} ." display_menu = menu .format(", ".join(sundaes))
I run this additional step to check my results and I get the right answer.. What do you think ??
print(display_menu) Our available flavors are: banana split, hot fudge, cherry, malted, black and white .

Also, when posting code, use the instructions for code formatting in the Markdown Cheatsheet pop-up below the "Add an Answer" area. Or watch this video on code formatting.
