I Care Because You Do

I've made poppy pod tea many times in the past, but only recently tried to make poppy SEED tea. It sorta worked... at least enough to prove to me that there are some chemicals in the tea.
However, from what I've read, it seems that it's not the actual contents of the seeds that gets you high, but the chemicals that have "rubbed" off of the poppy pod onto the seeds.
So my question is - Why, when there are more varieties of poppies that DON'T have psychoactive substances in them, do the seeds come from the opiate-containing variety? Although i know that there aren't that many people that actually go through the trouble of making tea out of the crazy amount of seeds you have to use, it seems that suppliers would be more ready to source seeds that are NOT from the opiate-containing poppy.
Thoughts?
