Hi Ben,

It is asking you to change the value of the favorite flavor you defined (mine is chocolate below) to cookie dough, in order to make the if condition true and display the message "Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!"

$flavor = "chocolate";
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
echo $flavor;
echo ".</p>";
if ($flavor == "cookie dough"){
  echo "<p>Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>";
}

So you need to change whatever you set $flavor as to "cookie dough" like this:

$flavor = "cookie dough";
echo "<p>Your favorite flavor of ice cream is ";
echo $flavor;
echo ".</p>";
if ($flavor == "cookie dough"){
  echo "<p>Randy's favorite flavor is cookie dough, also!</p>";
}

Hope that helps!
