Haha!

You just reminded me: When I a kid, I used to go to Carvel all the time and order a milkshake with two totally different flavored ice cream (say banana and rocky road), chocolate fudge, colored sprinkles....sometimes butterscotch depending on the flavors. Mix and throw in the cherries last. LOL...I ordered one the other day for the first time in years and the girl behind the counter looked at me crosseyed. Like -

Anyway, the banana split sounds great.
