National Banana Split Day 2023: The 25th of August is National Banana Split Day, so go berserk! Give your taste receptors the pleasure of scrumptious ice cream and decadent chocolate covering a fresh banana topped with nuts, a cherry, and whipped cream.
Surprisingly, the original banana split was invented in a pharmacy in 1904, not an ice cream parlour. David Evans Strickler, a pharmacist’s apprentice who relished experimenting with new soda fountain sundaes in his spare time, invented banana splits. They were so popular with the college population that students were willing to pay double the normal price for a sundae, 10 cents. Try a banana split today, and you’ll realise why this delicacy is a classic.
