I really feel like "can this animal suffer?" is a question whose answer is almost always yes, and anytime people try to tell you the answer is no it's because they have a vested interest in the suffering of that animal -- see, the meat industry.
If I ate meat, I'd focus less on "is this animal capable of suffering?" as a criteria, and more on "was it raised in a humane environment?" And then look at environmental impacts, etc.
