DESCRIPTION:

Banana Split Day celebrates one of the most decadent desserts of all time, the banana split.

It is believed the Banana Split was introduced at the Tassell Pharmacy in Latrobe, Pennsylvania on August 25, 1904. Whether this is the actual date cannot be confirmed, but it is known 23-year old pharmacist David Evans Strickler invented it that summer for the pharmacy's soda fountain in an effort to out-sundae other soda shops. It sold for a whopping 10 cents...twice the cost of other fountain treats.

The original banana split continues to be served in Latrobe restaurants (long after soda fountains faded from glory) courtesy of Valley Dairy restaurants since 1938.

A banana split is assembled on a dish called boat. A banana is split into two lengthwise and place on each side. Scoops of vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream are added in the middle. Toppings like pineapple on the strawberry ice cream, drizzle of chocolate syrup on the vanilla and strawberry toppings on chocolate are the usually add-ons. Garnishes such as slivers of almonds, whipped cream and cherries complete the whole thing.

The banana split had its 100th birthday in 2004.
