Decided the $1.29 taco bell side of rice beats my usual $7 chipotle bowl now

I used to be all about the chipotle sofritas bowl, extra everything, every friday. But last month I watched a guy at taco bell order two sides of rice, a side of beans, and a packet of creamy jalapeno sauce for like $3 total. I figured, why not try it during a lunch rush. Dude, that combo with some fire sauce is honestly better. The ratio of sauce to rice is way more balanced and I don't have to wait in that 20 minute line. Has anyone else downgraded their usual order to something cheaper and actually liked it more?

Is it just me or did the McRib get smaller after the 2019 comeback?

I remember grabbing McRibs back in like 2013 and they felt like a real meal, bun to meat ratio was solid and the sauce was all over. Then when they brought it back in 2019 (after that fake 'last time ever' thing), I swear the patty shrank by like 20% and they started skimping on the onions. My buddy in Cleveland says the same thing, but another guy on here swears it's always been the same size and I'm just remembering wrong. Could it be that they changed suppliers or switched to a thinner pre-frozen patty to cut costs? I've ordered it twice this year at two different locations and both times it felt like a slider with extra sauce. Anyone else notice this or am I losing it? And if you think it did change, any tricks to get closer to the old version like asking for extra onions or a double patty?
