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

you don't need the second join in the format method, you have already joined the flavors into a string, just feed that string as the argument to format.
