use .split() and .join()

I'm on task three having successfully completed task 1 & 2. When I attempt task three this way it says "Looks like Task 1 is no longer satisfied". What is going wrong?

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

First, you need to put dot (.) between join and ', ' like this display_name = ', '.join(sundaes). Second error is that you named displayed name and in menu you are using display_menu. So in last line change display_menu to display_name

It looks like you're missing a period on your join method when assigning it to display_name.
