If we didn't tamper and use artificial selection, aka breeding for plants our grocery store would be pretty bare and with little selection when it comes to veggies and fruits to a degree.
All we have done is gone from old fashioned breeding of plants that was less specific to a much more exact and precise way, GM. This is the logical extension of these 1000's of years of us manipulating plants to our benefit.
