645 PointsHi Evan,
Although the spaces you where missing won't show as wrong on the challenge, the best line of code should have those spaces before and after the "=" sign.
You where missing a dot after {} sings on menu variable
You only needed to replace the place holder with display_menu if you combined the sundaes list
You have it right just delete .format(display_menu)

645 PointsYou're missing a spaces on "sundaes" line The correct code should be: sundaes = available.split(";")
I'm working on the same challenge, trying to figure out the "menu" line
