Cheese back on top: Google finally fixes burger emoji

Google made good on its promise to fix the hamburger emoji, which led to an online debacle last month.

The people who argued that the cheese goes on top of the burger won, and the emoji has been fixed, according to Emojipedia, a site which tracks the emoji universe and all the changes. The burger emoji has been updated in the Android 8.1.

The emoji now matches all its other counterparts where the cheese is on the top.

On October 28, a user pointed out: “I think we need to have a discussion about how Google's burger emoji is placing the cheese underneath the burger, while Apple puts it on top.”

The tweet had more than 51,000 likes and 25,000 retweets.

Replying to this, Google CEO Sundar Pichai replied he would “drop everything” to address this issue.

As a result, internet started debating over the correct way to stack a cheeseburger.

Google even went to experiment with putting the cheese at the bottom, according to one of the users.

The update has finally put the debate to rest!
