Hamburger Emoji

Food

A classic hamburger consisting of a beef patty, a slice of yellow cheese, lettuce, and tomato tucked between two halves of a toasted sesame seed bun. It is the universal shorthand for a quick meal or a trip to a drive-thru.

Usage Context

This emoji is the go-to choice for coordinating lunch plans, discussing food cravings, or highlighting a cheat meal. It is frequently sent alongside 🍟 to represent a full fast-food combo or 🥤 when grabbing a drink to go.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2010, the hamburger became one of the most recognizable icons of the early emoji boom. It has since become a fixture in online food culture and famously triggered a lighthearted debate in 2017 regarding the proper placement of the cheese slice relative to the patty.
