Actually, I think it has. If not the "meaning' - then perhaps the "reasons" have evolved.
Twenty years ago, I had never heard the term: "Vegan". Now I hear it all of the time.
While there has always been a thread of not wanting to kill animals for their meat in the philosophy of vegetarianism - I see a lot more people adopting this reason as the prime motivation for not eating meat in their lives.
There is a lot of talk of vegetarianism for health reasons now, too - and more books written about it - than twenty years ago.
But I don't think the 'definition' has changed at all. To me it still means "no meat of any kind".
P.S. I am not a vegetarian.

No it still means the same thing. One added interesting reason to be vegetarian, is the tainted meat supply in America. Hormones, mad cow, OOOOOOOOO yum yum!

I guess. I saw a 'vegetarian' order a pepperoni pizza and pick of the pepperonis. She didn't want to eat them, but liked the flavor it left.
