    It’s a tragedy.

    I get my chiles from a Mexican grocer for exactly this reason. They’re actually a bit spicy!

    Serranos from the major supermarkets are also less spicy than they should be.

      Maybe my local brand is the margin of error, but this comes as a surprise to me, because my area’s Walmarts have started carrying a new suppliers’ serranos, and those suckers are even hotter than the jalapenos, which have seemed to cool down over the years as reported elsewhere.
