I think the book Sapiens makes the point that wheat has trained us into cultivating it for selfish needs.

(Except that it’s wheat, and that we annihilated 99% of its brethren to pick out the one that we liked so we could effectively clone it. But yes, we are the slaves…)

Sapiens and Homo Deus are both such good books. Lots of little anecdotes like that we’re just so fascinating.
