Item #: SCP-5027
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-5027 is to be stored in a sealed container and kept at or below 1.6°C (35°F). SCP-5027 is also to be surrounded with incense, perfume, or another applicable form of scent-creating substance. SCP-5027 is only to be monitored and studied by individuals who consider themselves vegetarian, vegan, or follow an ideology that prevents them from consuming pork or pork products.
Description: SCP-5027-1 appears to be a golden-brown honeyed ham which is scored crosswise, and spiral-cut; part of the ham prepared for serving as if it had been recently carved. SCP-5027-1 has identical chemical composition to that of tissue from a common pig (Sus scrofa domesticus). Unlike regular meat products, SCP-5027-1 shows no signs of degradation or necrosis. SCP-5027-1 is large, weighing seventeen pounds in total.
SCP-5027-2 is a plate made of porcelain, with blue dyed rings around the edge of the plate, and depictions of different meat dishes scattered across the rest of the surface. SCP-5027-2 is also attached to SCP-5027-1 by a sort of viscous, honey-like substance that resists dissolution by any known solvent, and has an unknown chemical composition. At present, all attempts to chip or otherwise damage SCP-5027-2 have been unsuccessful.
SCP-5027-1 was found on 1/9/2020 after strange reports of missing persons were heard from two agents with family in Brothers, Oregon, U.S.A. An investigation of the house belonging to said missing persons yielded the discovery of SCP-5027, as well as sixteen other copies of SCP-5027-1 found at seemingly random locations around the house; each copy was identical in every foreseeable way- all had identical weights, score marks, and pre-carved portions. However, there was only one instance of SCP-5027-2, which was found at the center of a large dining room table, surrounded by food that had presumably rotted over the past few weeks.
SCP-5027-1 exudes a scent that compels surrounding individuals to consume it. To most creatures that eat meat this compulsion is subtle but overpowering at room temperature. When chilled to the internal temperature of an average refrigerator, the scent SCP-5027-1 produces has a reduced effect- but even when placed in a sealed container- does not disappear completely. Tests have shown this property to both affect the olfactory senses and the subconscious of individuals within a 25 meter radius of SCP-5027-1. Creatures that are completely disinterested in consuming meat generally seem unaffected by SCP-5027.
When an individual consumes part of SCP-5027-1, they exclaim that SCP-5027-1 reminds them of "grandma's cooking". This statements is made verbatim by every person who has consumed SCP-5027-1, and is stated in English, in a southern accent, even if an individual who consumed SCP-5027-1 does not know how to speak English, or have a southern inflection.
Twenty to forty minutes after individuals consume SCP-5027-1, they claim to feel tired, and prepared to take a long nap. Those who resist the urge to fall asleep commonly pass out anywhere between forty to ninety minutes after consumption unless artificial means are used to keep them awake. Once an individual who has consumed SCP-5027-1 falls asleep, they begin to shed their hair, and their body starts to shrink. Over the course of six minutes, an individual will condense into a perfect copy of SCP-5027-1. When multiple copies of SCP-5027-1 are kept at room temperature, the influence they create is magnified. Individuals who consume copies of SCP-5027-1 also turn into copies themselves after falling asleep.
All copies of SCP-5027-1 have been disposed of via incineration. However, The original seems to regenerate itself at a rate that makes disposal impossible. If the entirety of SCP-5027-1 is destroyed, it will seemingly grow anew from the center of SCP-5027-2.
Addendum 5027.1: Animal Testing
Feeding SCP-5027-1 to carnivorous or omnivorous animals causes the same effects seen in humanoids, including the statement that SCP-5027-1 reminds them of "grandmother's cooking", even if they have do not posses the cognizant capacity to understand or reproduce speech. In all cases, the copies weighed seventeen pounds, even if the creature that consumed SCP-5027-1 weighed less.
Addendum 5027.2: Medically-induced sleeplessness
Using several pharmaceutical drugs, physical teasing, and a large quantity of caffeine, a D-class personnel who partook of SCP-5027-1 was forcefully kept awake. They showed symptoms of indigestion and sweat profusely. After three hours, they demanded to use the restroom, which was allowed. After doing so, they exhibited no adverse effects from SCP-5027-1 and no longer felt sick. Analysis of a stool sample indicated that the D-class had passed SCP-5027-1 from their system completely.
