I thought they were supposed to be mild?

Anaheim's aren't a "hot" variety.

Anaheims are like that always. Some are hot and some are not. They just
vary. Try again.

I don't think I have ever had an Anaheim that I would consider "hot". Or
even vaguely spicy for that matter.

Hatch chilies are a localized hybrid though, aren't they? And from what
I've read, they don't ship well. Run-of-the-mill Anaheim's don't have much
(if any) kick to them, at least around here (northeast). I like 'em for
Italian sausage and peppers, instead of bell peppers.

Where would the Hatch variety be local to? I live pretty close to
Anaheim...

The ones that I grow vary. I guess you would call some spicy and some mild.

I had one once. Since I buy them because they aren't hot (my wife
doesn't like hot), we weren't happy. I figure it must have gotten
cross-pollinated by a hot pepper.

My gripe is with jalapenos. They keep getting less and less hot over
the years. I may switch to serranos.

If you look at seed catalogs, the hot ones are still available. I'm
guessing that growers are responding to consumer preferences.
