Yes they were vegetarians, but they lived under different earth conditions.
one hint of what happened after the fall could be in the curse that God gave to Adam. "Cursed is the ground because of you".
So we know that from that moment on the ground became cursed, which might mean that the ground was not longer able to provide all the nutrition required for a strong life. in other words the vitality that existed upon the ground was gone. This forced men to now plant and toil for what previously the ground grew naturally.
Then after the flood a second devastation occurred upon the ground, which made necessary for God to allow the eating of meat to Noah and his descendants.
