Few days before a tweet gone viral of Thomas Baekdal saying"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". Google's CEO said in response that "Will drop everything else we are doing and address on Monday if folks can agree on the correct way to do this! ".
Apple's ordering of the lettuce, presumably a variant of iceberg sourced from an Italian quarry, is understandable as a mechanism for preventing the lower bun from getting soggy. It’s the same approach taken by the In-N-Out chain.

Google's positioning of the cheese is blasphemous, simultaneously defying both culinary physics (how do you cook it to drip down the bun like that?) and good taste (it’ll result in a soggy doughy mess). It's so egregious that Google CEO Sundar Pichai took notice and promised to "drop everything" and address on Monday if folks can agree on what the correct ordering should be.According to Emojipedia, the hamburger emoji, alternatively known as the cheeseburger for obvious reasons, was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015. Since then it's been up to each company to decide how it wants to render the two buns, meat patty, and cheese; usually lettuce and tomato, too; and rarely sauces like mayonnaise and ketchup.
