Translation: Hello everyone, compared to the evening scheduled at my house on Friday night it would be more appropriate that two or three of those who planned to bring drinks bring food as there are only 3/4 people who have planned To bring food. So to avoid that we take the person next to us as a meal (at least we will be in the theme of the evening), I would like some of you to bring some food for the dish (Fanny is going to make a cake and I'm sure most of those who bring drinks will also bring peanuts ...). A pizza may very well do the trick.
Edit: on closer inspection could well be innocent, always a danger of confirmation bias with this stuff!
So to avoid that we take the person next to us as a meal (at least we will be in the theme of the evening)
Basically: "We don't want to end up eating each other (AKA "Cannibalism") HOWEVER, if we did end up eating each other (AKA "Cannibalism") at least we will still be doing the same thing we planned on doing, anyway, lol."
In other words: "We're eating human meat tonight, whether we eat each other or somebody else, lol."
Except in French, eating each other would be a code for 69ing or oral sex. That is the first most obvious and common interpretation of this phrase... Though it could be a cannibalism reference. The parenthesis is the only really sketchy part of this e-mail, the rest is codified Paris mores having to do with sex and eating.

Talking about an orgy, but they don't want to be stuck with just each other as sex partners?
