You are going to have a very hard time to re-conciliate eating food without causing pain (and yes, trees/plants probably also feel some kind of pain, while not the same as in the animal realm).
Animals in the wild don't give a s** about the pain they cause to other species when they eat themselves alive, and eating a prey alive is the normal standard in nature.
This being said, I'm all for minimizing suffering of anything involved in the food chain as much as possible. I consider that avoiding wasting food is just as important as reducing the pain we cause to animals.
