The available flavors string only needs to be split once, then you can join them back together either on the next line or in the .format() directly. The latter would look like this:
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(';')
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(', '.join(sundaes))
