Jalapeno Conspiracy

What has happened to jalapeno peppers?
The ones in the supermarket more often than not taste like bell peppers. I
have noticed this over the past few years and it seems to be getting worse
with time. We used to get a dudd now and then but now we rarely find a
hot one.
The solution of course, is to grow them ourselves. Well guess what?
The ones from the garden shops have the same problem so we started growing
our own from seed. Well, guess what again?
This year's jalapenos grown from seeds advertised as hot are perfectly
sweet. We sampled three different plants from different areas of the
garden and they are all the same.
Any thoughts?
I've grown Burpee "Jalapeņo M" for the past two years and the peppers had
plenty of kick. What brand & variety did you grow?
