I remember our first bottle of Sriracha lasted about two years because we thought it was so spicy. Now they are lucky to last two months and we always add something spicy to give it some kick because we find it too bland now.

EDIT: For context, when we eat Thai or Indian we ask for "thai hot" or grandma's style (the cook is the owner's grandmother). Thai hot is perfect. Grandma is trying to kill me.

My friends told me they changed the recipe, so that might be why

I believe it. I get a Sriracha like red pepper sauce at Korean market and it is significantly hotter. I would not be surprised if Sriracha may have reduced its spice level for a wider audience.
