After burger connoisseurs grilled Google for its sorry excuse for cheeseburger emoji, which foolishly featured the cheese underthe patty, CEO Sundar Pichai vowed the company would "drop everything" to make the emoji right with the world.
On Tuesday — one month after the ordeal shook foodies everywhere — Emojipedia released Google's updated burger emoji, which is now respectably ordered: bun, lettuce, tomato, cheese, patty, bun.
We needed this small win, 2017. Thank you.

Google's put us all through a lot so why not celebrate this major moment in history by treating yourself to an IRL cheeseburger and beer?
You deserve it.
