If what you want is to enable your user to enter several foods (strings), then concatenate them together, try something like the following: In [33]: foods = [] In [34]: food = raw_input('What is your favorite food?') What is your favorite food?peaches In [35]: foods.append(food) In [36]: food = raw_input('What is your favorite food?') What is your favorite food?nectarines In [37]: foods.append(food) In [38]: food = raw_input('What is your favorite food?') What is your favorite food?cantaloupe In [39]: foods.append(food) In [40]: ', '.join(foods) Out[40]: 'peaches, nectarines, cantaloupe' Note that we append each food to a list, then do string.join(). That's faster than doing multiple string concatenations. In this case there are not enough strings to make a difference. But, it's a good habit to get into.
