Many years ago, a tradition was lost in San Francisco. The Ghirardelli Company took the Emperor Norton Sundae off their menu, to the disappointment of many. This cherished delight was no ordinary sundae. It consisted of a goblet glass, lovingly lined with sliced bananas and cherries, cradling two scoops of sumptuous vanilla ice cream, layered with hot fudge, topped generously with whipped cream, and sprinkled with crunchy nuts.

This sundae represents more than just delicious indulgence, it holds a special place in the hearts of locals and tourists alike. Additionally, it pays tribute to the city's history, named after our beloved local character, Emperor Norton. Alas, it has been absent for nearly two decades and it's high time we bring it back. Restoring the Emperor Norton Sundae will let us not only indulge our senses but also uphold a time-honored San Franciscan tradition.

We implore Ghirardelli Company to reconsider their decision and revive the Emperor Norton Sundae. San Francisco's culinary landscape is incomplete without it. This is a call to all those who remember and miss this sublime sundae, and to those who have not yet had the chance to taste the magic. Let us stand together and bring back the Emperor Norton Sundae to its rightful place. Please sign this petition and lend your voice to this savory cause.
