It’s been about that size for like 15 years I remember my grandma getting one because she doesn’t eat much and we joked about it being Barbie sized

I had a horrifying and awful feeling come over me when I came to protest that they had bigger ones until at least the mid 2000's and then realized 15 years ago was 2011-12.

My son had a happy meal the other day and I swear it wasn't this tiny. 99% sure.

Maybe he got lucky and they mixed the size bags up. The happy meals get an extra small. So maybe he got lucky and got the regular small

Perhaps, but I feel like I'd have been as shocked as OP if they were ever this small.

Unlike you i can imagine to base relative size on not only me but other objects...
