(Probably Found) Short story about First Contact

[Nwolfe35]

I remember a short story about a first contact with an alien race that goes wrong because it turns out the aliens smell so delicious that the earth ambassador beats the alien ambassador to death with a chair to eat him.
Any ideas?

That's a tough one.

This may not be what you looking for but I have book suggestion The Madness Season by C S Friedman .

 

[Nwolfe35]

I’m pretty sure this story was in a first contact anthology

Any idea when it might have been written ?

Any idea when it might have been written ?

I’m thinking the anthology was out in the late 80s maybe early 90s. Being an anthology the story could have been written any time before that

Hi,

No idea but it sounds delicious!

Cheers, Greg.
