Is there some trick handler I can throw in the script so that what appears in the result window formats each comma delimited result on a new line

The "trick" is to use Script Debugger and its "pretty print" facility, which will return:

{
menu bar item "Apple" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "Finder" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "Edit" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "Go" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "Window" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events", 
menu bar item "Help" of menu bar 1 of application process "Finder" of application "System Events"
}
