I know where vegetarian comes from. And I know where vegan comes from. What I don't know is who decided "etari" means "and non-dead animal products".

Strangely, this thought was prompted by my burger. My food is psychotic. Or maybe just psychic.

Etari? Sounds vaguely gamy, if you ask me...

According to OED
[Irreg. f. VEGET-ABLE after ns. and adjs. in -arian. Hence F. végétarien, G. vegetarianer.
The general use of the word appears to have been largely due to the formation of the Vegetarian Society at Ramsgate in 1847.]

that doesn't explain that much though
