Effects: Upon consumption of SCP-XXXX-1, subjects will express an increased piety towards their current religion. Already religious subjects will increase the time they spend praying or performing in other religious activities. Atheist and agnostic individuals will become religious, usually devoting their faith to the religion they were exposed to the most in the past. Subjects will attempt to convert non-religious individuals either through persuasion, coercion, or exposing them to SCP-XXXX-1.

Instance Designation: SCP-XXXX-2
Product Name: "Philosophical Enchiladas"
Defining Ingredients: Green chili sauce, ground beef
Effects: Upon consumption of SCP-XXXX-2, subjects will become more interested in topics regarding philosophy and philosophers.

If a subject does not have philosophical beliefs before consuming SCP-XXXX-2, then they will exhibit a completely random philosophy, despite having no previous knowledge of said philosophy nor the philosopher who established said philosophy.

The alibi will state that the subject was present in their home for "enchilada night [sic]" for the duration that was covered.
