Jake,
I know what you mean... it is a weird sort of pull to the meat and cooked food.
The only explaination for it that fits with energy flow perspective is, that during the growth and development period of most people, the primary food that was consumed was cooked/processed foods.
This means that the mass that was added to the body has certain requirements to be maintained. Which of course is consuming that which created it. From this point we see why a gradual change of diet is often recommended. They ("experts") also recommend gradual change for addictions of other things as well.
As everything is interacting with everything, it is best to look at the energy flow description as a skeleton of basic information that can be built upon using personal experience. There are many connections that were not mentioned such as heat production during exercise, where it comes from and water being the major path of it exiting the body. But one major connection is the role of sleep it's correct form that matches other natural cycles and related eating timing and exercising which match natural cycles also. This is what I am currently trying to put together graphically.
And that is a good and important point you made about energy depletion via cooking/processing food with minimal reduction in caloric content! Good eye!
Here's to a greater understanding of what it means to be a Human that is Being.
