"Splitting and Joining" Challenge Task 2 of 3

I tried to solve the problem with many possibilities using .join() and .format() but still I was wrong as they said your 'menu' string isn't right. What should I do?

banana.py 
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
menu = "Our available flavours are: {}.".format(", ".join(sundaes))

Hi there! You're doing fantastic! Many people get tripped up on this one, but very few for the reason you are not passing. You're using the British form of "flavours" instead of the American English form of "flavors". Correcting the spelling of this one word causes this code to pass all three steps.

Well done! Hope this helps! :sparkles:
