All the sauropoda were vegetarians; their relatives, the therapoda, were meat-eaters. These were both members of the Saurischia. Another great group, the Ornithischia, were also plant-eaters.

So MOST dinosaurs did not eat meat. This is normal for biospheres; energy comes from the Sun and plants capture some of it, so most animals find a richer food source in plants; only a few can specialize in eating the animals that ate the plants. If there are too many meat-eaters, they devour all the plant-eaters and then starve.
