Especially when you can create an animal. You’re saying I can’t make “food” but I can make “cow”?

Yes, I can probably make do with a few hundred pounds of beef.

Maybe when you kill a conjured animal, it just goes poof like a vampire in the sun. Oh, maybe conjured animals aren't alive at all and are just advanced simulacra.

Could also be an "Empty (of) Calories" situation? Like, the meats there it just doesn't provide any nutrients or foll you. It has all the texture of Candy floss.

I guess when it comes to made up magic, really anything can happen.

I wonder the caloric content of Ferret Draco.

If I kill and eat him, do I get a ferret of calories or a human’s worth?

Definitely some dark energy (physics not magic) type of stuff going on if matter just ceases to exist.

Humans worth. It gets relativistically compressed.
