Hot Enough For You? (Not Weather)

I like Pace Chunky Salsa. It comes in a small jar, a medium (24oz) jar, and a big jug. Per product ounce, the jug is a much better buy. But nobody around here seems to stock the mild version.
I don’t know if it’s about catering to “manly Texas tastes” (AKA “who needs flavor when you can chemically burn your entire digestive system”), but it ticks me off. I like a lot of spicy flavors, but I also like to TASTE them rather than just feel the burn. Grr.
This seems to be along the same lines as what most restaurants serve as “Cajun” food. (Note that I lived close enough to spend weekends in New Orleans for 10 years, and my wife’s best friend is from Thibideaux, LA). Cajun flavors have a kick, but commercially made foods are kicked up past 10. You cannot taste anything beyond heat.
So is this anything but catering to people who don’t know that there is flavor in peppers? Is it commercial food prep planners just going lazy and assuming that if it’s hot enough nobody can tell their foods suck?

I’m curious if this suggestion was because NYC salsas are hotter or wimpier than Pace, or because of the old Pace ad (“Get a rope!”).

The age-old question: how hot is too hot for you?

For me, it’s anything more than a banana pepper.
