To be honest, it kind of makes me sad. Is the fresh totatoe I eat alive when I bite it?

Growing things are alive, that's how they grow.

If it makes you feel better, many plants want their seeds to be eaten so they can be spread. Tomatoes are just a package around the seeds, the green stems are the plants 'body'. It's more like eating semen than eating a person.
