Exactly, and further proof of your point is that the exact same process has happened to vegetables: they're bred to be transportable and sale-able for a long period of time; not to be excellent. Tomatoes are the perfect example. Most tomatoes that you can buy from a grocery store are really not worth eating. Compare them to a actually ripe summer tomato from a neighbor's garden, and they may as well be different substances.
Commodification turns things mediocre almost by definition.
