Can't seem to pass task 3 in this challenge

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

I cant seem to pass task 3 of 3 challenge When I run this in the python shell, it seems to work fine. However when I run it the challenge it says "Did you use .join(", ")?"

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

Your join needs a space in it.

", ".join(sundaes)
