I can confirm this behavior.

Are the animals being healed, or are the consuming the items past the point of being healed? And if so, are they being taken out of love mode, or do they start to breed again when no longer panicked?

Certain breedable animals (pigs, cows, sheep, goats, frogs, etc.) that aren't at full health cannot be healed when feeding them their favorite food. When attempting to do this, the said entity becomes in love again and doesn't heal. To my knowledge, the only instance where this concept doesn't exactly apply to breedable entities is with camels. Camels can be fed their favorite food when they're not at full health, causing them to heal and become in love.

With all breedable entities, when they're attacked, they lose their "InLove" NBT tag, causing them to no longer be in love. Looking back, this may be intentional, but I think the part with certain breedable entites not being healed when being fed their favorite food might be a separate issue.
