Taco Bell: America 'needs a taco emoji'
Taco Bell wants there to be a taco emoji, and they're rallying their loyal fans to help make it happen.
In a rather petulant note, the company writes: "Why do pizza and hamburger lovers get an emoji but taco lovers don't? Here's a better question: Why do we need four different types of mailboxes? Or 25 different types of clocks? Or a VCR tape and floppy disk emoji? No one even uses those things anymore." Apparently, tons of people agree with Taco Bell, as more than 22,500 have already signed the petition.
