No, I don't really buy it, either.
I swear this section reads like an old D&D game. Nothing happens unless someone arbitrarily rolls a random number on the 20-sided dice. And then you get an infodump.
As to the Gamp's law nonsense. I cannot see why they cannot transfigure raw food into cooked food. Or food that an animal could and would happily eat, into something that a human could eat.
And clearly Gamp's law doesn't apply to fluidds. Aquamente, anyone? And I'm pretty sure that someone has conjured tea over the course of the series, let alone Olivander's fountain of wine.
