100 years ago this summer, the banana split was invented in Latrobe Pennsylvania. To commemorate this historic event, the town is having a contest for the best banana split song. Go to www.latrobeartcenter.org, and you can check out the entries. I think the contest may still be open.

Note for our friends across the sea, a banana split is an ice cream dessert featuring a split banana, filled with ice cream and covered in various toppings.
