Another batch of emojis will soon be hitting cellphones the world over, and once again guess what has gotten snubbed? That's right, Big Emoji has decided that while the world's greatest food was not worthy of becoming an emoji the disgusting olive was. THE OLIVE. Nobody likes olives outside of a martini, and people only like them in one because after drinking a bunch of gin you need something to get that Christmas Tree flavor out of your mouth. That's right, in Big Emoji's eyes a consumable mouthwash is a better emoji than one of the most popular dishes in the world. Shameful.
There is currently already a taco and a burrito emoji, and as big a booster of nachos as I am even I must admit that when it comes to Mexican food in popular cultural those are #1 and #2 with ‘chos coming in #3. I have no problem with the taco and the burrito coming first, but the fact that now the tamale is coming before the nacho, well it’s beyond the pale. Don't get me wrong, I love a good tamale, but if you're trying to convince me that there are more people out there that would be tweeting about tamales than about nachos, well you can get the hell out of my face.
There are fortunately some heroes out there trying to change this through Change.org, where all good changes take place. Unfortunately as of now only 535 people have supported this... since 2017... oh... So, Big Emoji might not be champing at the bit because of this, but YOU could make a moral stand by signing on. I have, because it's the right thing to do, but will you?
