I'm vegetarian and periodically go on fruitarian mode. There's a nice ritual and spiritual/psychological benefit in choosing your food, talking to the people that grow your food, physically going out to farmers markets, and of course, preparing your food.
Alienation is a common symptom of modern existence. Convenience is crack for the soul. Having intimate knowledge and exercising your will over basic activities like preparing and selecting food can keep you in touch with what is real.
Just my two cents on this matter.
