not sure what im missing

I tried the format().join() still did not work

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

The {} in the string can take one value. However, sundaes is a list. What you want is a way to "join" all the values in sundaes so it becomes one value.
