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?
That "slider with extra sauce" line is spot on. My buddy drove 45 minutes to three different Mickey D's last fall chasing a decent McRib and texted me a pic of one sitting next to a ruler, patty was barely wider than his phone. He started ordering it with extra onions and extra sauce just to make it feel like a real sandwich again, said it helped a little but the meat still felt thin.
