[CH] Dirty Little Faker Habs

The folks at my local Bi-Lo are probably convinced that I am insane, now.  I walked in tonight to buy some vegetables.  Suddenly, from across the produce department, I see habaneros in the "hot pepper" section.  I gasp with joy and say, "they really love me here."  I'm proud to say that I did restrain myself and only got about 1/2 lb of peppers, though.  

So anyways, when I get them home, I cut off the calyx and a questionable spot on one and eat it.  Nothing.  It has the habanero flavor, but no heat whatsoever.  I was crushed.  I figured that that one had to be a bad pepper.  The others couldn't be completely without heat.  Fortunately, I was right about that.  The rest are hot AND have hab flavor.  

Anyone ever experienced that with their own plants?  I don't mean barely hot but absolutely no heat at all...
