HAPPY BIRTHDAY BANANA SPLIT!!!! 100 Years Old

PITTSBURGH, Pa. -- Banana split, happy 100th birthday. Wednesday was Banana Split Day at the University of Pittsburgh.

Ice cream aficionados believe David Strickler, a graduate of Pitt's School of Pharmacy invented the banana split in 1904, when he was apprenticing in a drug store. Patricia Dowley Kroboth, the dean of the school of pharmacy, said they're proud of Strickler.

The proper banana split has a halved banana topped with a scoop of vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream, topped with pineapple pieces, and chocolate and strawberry sauce. Then comes the whipped cream, chopped nuts and three cherries.

Ever had a banana split in a parfait glass (instead of a 'boat').

2. I love banana splits, without the nuts though.
I don't like nuts.
