I don't quite get what you are saying. Living food doesn't take any time at all to prepare! (Unless we want something fancy, usually trying to simulate foods we are familiar with.) That is the whole point; living foods are ready to eat as is. They impart their lifeforce to us and merge their consciousness with ours; there is no death. Life begets life.
Try growing tomatos in your backyard versus walking to the store and buying tomatos and then compare which feels more alive to you.
Kind of like the pit of indifference or some such about food. If you work at it a little and consider it a chore, its "dead food" if you work at it a lot and consider it enjoyable to prepare good nourishing food, its "Living food"
Kind of like how you approach the concept of the food.
If each meal is similar to each other meal (every day is the same, or you go to a fastfood restaurant) your senses dont get the same kind of "pseudo hunting" when you prepare the food and grow it yourself. Edit: to clarify, if you eat nothing but a predetermined healthy cycle of food 7 days a week 52 weeks a year you will be producing intensly dead food as there is no "variance" in your experience, which then produces stagnation and slowly death.
So I hope that clarifies a bit what i mean.
