Challenge #03487-I199: And Your Choice of Dipping Sauce

A group of humans invite a large group of Vorax, as well as other factions of their kind, such as the farmers, the factory workers and so forth, to a huge planet that's a foodie paradise. Shelling out the time to take them to an all-you-can-eat-high-calorie-lots-of-meat buffet. Why? Just for the fun of it. -- Anon Guest

It's not often that one invites the enemy to a dinner date. Neither side was truly prepared, but the Humans knew how to do peace after lifetimes of war. This was not helped by the fact that the Vorax as a species had metabolisms like the heart of a star.

They needed high calorie food like most species needed air or water.

The planet for the feast was far away from anywhere else in the greater Galactic Alliance. Initially an uninhabited Havenworld, Humanity turned it into extravagantly abundant farmland, and thereafter, food. Humans, it must be noted, have made a lifestyle out of calorie-dense creations that would appall all but the hungriest of cogniscents.
