Clearance Level 2: Clearance
Secondary Class: {$secondary-class}
SCP-XXXX shortly after containment.
SCP-XXXX shortly after containment.
Special Containment Procedures: . SCP-XXXX is to be kept in the cafeteria of Site-76. Contents of SCP-XXXX can be eaten by personnel as a substitute to Foundation-provided meals. POI-XXXX is to be kept in a standard containment cell in Site-76. Identification and containment of POI-XXXX-1 is to be considered a Level 2 priority for all Foundation personnel in the Midwest region.
Description: SCP-XXXX refers to an unmarked paper bag. SCP-XXXX is capable of materializing sandwiches when a hand of a subject is inside. The sandwich can consist of varying ingredients (records of sandwiches taken from SCP-XXXX can be found in Document-XXXX-1) but usually contains some type of bread, meat, and condiment, although exceptions have broken this rule.
SCP-XXXX was contained on 01/18/2019 when a video was posted on their Instagram account showing POI-XXXX pulling multiple sandwiches out of SCP-XXXX. Foundation webcrawlers embedded at Instagram was soon alerted and scrubbed the video. POI-XXXX and SCP-XXXX-1 were contained by Foundation agents.

Interview with POI-XXXX:
Interviewed: POI-XXXX
Interviewer: Junior Researcher Joshua Grant
Foreword: POI-XXXX behaved cordially towards staff, despite their containment. In order to maintain efficient relations, POI-XXXX's interview took place under the pretenses that they would be released and compensated for their time pending an interview for an ongoing FBI investigation, with Foundation staff posing as a branch dedicated to the investigation of "paranormal" items.
<Begin Log>
Grant: This is Joshua Grant interviewing POI-XXXX three days after retrieval and containment. How are your accommodations POI-XXXX?
POI-XXXX: The mattress has some weird brown stains, but I will say the cell is a lot better than some hotels I've been to, heh. By the way, you can just call me John, none of this "pee oh eye" stuff.
Grant: Noted, John. Could you please tell me how you came upon SCP-XXXX?
POI-XXXX: Hmm?
Grant: The bag.
POI-XXXX: Sure, so for the past couple of years I've worked at a high school janitor, doesn't pay well, but as a high school dropout you take what you can.
Grant: Dropout?
POI-XXXX: Yeah, my mother, she got sick near the start of my sophomore year. Took a week off from school to help her, but then she just got worse, and I was never able to go back. She passed a few months back.
Grant: Sorry to hear that.
POI-XXXX: Thanks, means a lot.
Grant: If I may ask, can you answer my previous question?
POI-XXXX: Yeah, I was in the school's cafeteria about a year ago, mopping the floor and stuff when I strike up a conversation with a kid in…freshman year I think?
<End Log>
Closing Statement: The child (Henceforth classified as POI-ZZZZ) mentioned by POI-XXXX shows the characteristics of an emerging reality bender. I recommend POI-XXXX to be tagged, amnestized, and sent back to their job in order to locate POI-ZZZZ. - Junior Researcher Grant
Granted. - Senior Researcher Liu
Incident-XXXX-1: On 17/04/2020, POI-XXXX was released after being treated with Class C amnestics, and was deposited at its place of residence in order to locate POI-ZZZZ. Approximately five days after being released from Foundation custody, POI-XXXX perished on the ███████ ████ Middle School campus. Camera footage shows POI-XXXX collapsing on the floor while working. During POI-XXXX's autopsy, it was noted that nervous system in POI-XXXX was not present, the removal of said system is theorized to be the cause of death. The body of POI-XXXX has been transferred to cold storage for later burial.
Five hours after the death of POI-XXXX, Junior Researcher Grant sampled a sandwich from SCP-XXXX and perished. Analysis of the sandwich revealed that traces of cyanide were present within the bread. All sandwiches since have included a lethal item in its contents (sandwiches have included items such as thumbtacks, arsenic, and antifreeze). SCP-XXXX has been transferred to a standard storage locker in Site-73 for further study.
Addendum-XXXX-1:
On 18/09/2021, POI-XXXX was taken out of cold storage, cremated, and buried in Site-76. Following the cremation, SCP-XXXX ceased to produce sandwiches and instead produced a bouquet of white lilies. When the lilies exit the vicinity of POI-XXXX's ashes, they will quickly wilt and die.
On 21/09/2021, it was discovered that the ashes were transferred to a marble urn inside the storage locker housing SCP-XXXX. On the urn is a bronze plaque inscribed with the phrase "Thank you for everything." No record of the urn exists on Foundation databases. Currently, the contents of SCP-XXXX have yet to return to normal.

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscle
I said, "Do you speak my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a Vegemite sandwich
This is my first SCP that I'm putting up, and hopefully, it'll stick!

Second idea (not related to other draft above)
“And in the event of a containment breach, you follow the tactical response team to your- What's that? Ah, that's the lunch break, if everyone could come up to the desk in the front, there are some lunch vouchers for all of you. The cafeteria's down the hall and to the right. I will see you all in an hour."
Lydia looked at her pizza, it was her favorite; mozzarella, fresh basil, and just a dash of olive oil on a golden thin crust. An exact copy of Mom used to make, the only problem being Mom had died fifteen years prior.
Lydia had read the plaque next to the box, she knew it somehow drew from your memories your personal favorite pizza like anomalous targeted advertising. The part she didn't get was why the box was regulated to a place no one knows the location of, run by an organization no one knows exists, stuck in the back of a cafeteria that smelled overwhelmingly like expired cheese.
"Hey, do you mind if I sit here?"
Lydia looked up in surprise, it was the doctor from orientation. She motioned for him to take a seat.
"Not at all, Doctor…?"
"Anders, but please just call me Jeff, not really big on titles Mrs…"
"Lydia Acri, archivist. Used to work at Spicy Crust Pizza if you can believe it"
He sat down opposite her, and he ate in silence. After some time, Jeff wiped his grease-stained hands on a napkin and pointed to her untouched slice. "You going to finish that?"
She checked her watch, lunch was almost over. "Yeah, I'm just…"
Jeff leaned over the table, "Let me guess, you're probably wondering why the cure to global starvation is just sitting on a table, only feeding a thousand people a day?"
"Yes, how'd you know?"
"We all thought that after orientation, but the problem with doing that lies in the purpose of the Foundation. We want to make sure the general public has a sense of normality. If we show up in Africa handing out endless pizza pies, that's going to tip the public off that there are things out there that don't follow the rules. Even worse is if other groups with anomalies see us and then think it's ok to start releasing their stuff into the world. And trust me, a pizza box is nothing compared to what they have up their sleeve."
He got up, wiping excess crumbs on his hand on a lab coat. "Don't think about it too much or you'll go insane, I'm not joking, plenty of people have. Just forget about it and enjoy the pizza, it's always nice."
As he walked away, Lydia took a tentative bite. He was right, it was pretty good.

To be performed by the highest-ranking Doctor on the Day of the Breach and the ordination of new Holy Doctors. The Litany of Saints urges the Original Doctors
Doctor: Bright have mercy on us!
Those Assembled: Bright have mercy on us!
Doctor: Let us pray. [A pause for reflection] Saint Clef the First pray for us!
Those Assembled: You were the first disciple of Bright and the founder of this Church. During the Breach, you vanquished the Foundation's greatest evils. You served soup to those who were hungry and gave support to those that suffered. Give us the compassion to provide to those poorer than us, and the solace to those who have lost what they loved.
D: Saint Everett pray for us!
TA: You chronicled the story of the Breach for all to hear the story of how humanity was preserved. Give us the courage to preach the word of Bright to those unaware so that they too may be saved.

Subject: Final Script for Ambrose International
Advertising just finished revising the script for the North American demographic. Think we put enough disclaimers that the Feds will be happy now. Twitter practically roasted us alive last time this aired, so we had to remove the memetic compulsion (unfortunate, but the customer is king I suppose.) We just need your signoff and we'll get to filming. I attached it below.
- Chaz
INT. FAST FOOD RESTAURANT
We see a family (a MOTHER, FATHER, a teenage SON, and a younger DAUGHTER all dressed in casual clothes) eating burgers and fries at a fast-food restaurant. The SON throws down his burger in disgust.
CUT to the family eating salad at a fancy restaurant, now in suits and formal dresses. The DAUGHTER looks up from her plate.
The MOTHER and FATHER look at each other exasperated. A WAITER walks up to the table holding a platter covered in a silver dome. The WAITER uncovers the platter to show the disembodied head of CHAZ AMBROSE floating. CHAZ opens his eyes, the family screams.
CHAZ
Don't you think food should be a little more… exciting?
CHAZ and the MOTHER, FATHER, SON, and DAUGHTER glow with a yellow aura and vanish from the restaurant.
INT. AMBROSE INTERNATIONAL ENTRANCE HALL
CUT to CHAZ, MOTHER, FATHER, SON, and DAUGHTER appearing in the hallway to Ambrose International. CHAZ is now complete, head attached to a body, and is wearing a dark blue suit.
CHAZ
Welcome, to Ambrose International!
MOTHER
This place looks familiar, is this-
CHAZ
That's right, along with being a Michelin-starred restaurant, Ambrose International is the set of my newest Food Network show UnVEILing Food, where I show you how to harness anomalies to enhance your home cooking every Friday at 8!
CHAZ puts his arms around the family.
CHAZ
Let's take a tour, shall we?
They walk down the hallway, passing doors marked with various cities. People of multiple nationalities can be seen streaming in and out of the doors.
CHAZ
Here at Ambrose, we're dedicated to serving you the best, no matter your race or creed. That's why whether you're from Tapei to Tampa, Cairo to Caracas, you can expect the same high-caliber service every time as all our entrances around the world all link up here.
CHAZ
Maybe you still doubt our quality? Maybe you wonder how we obtain our top-notch ingredients? Well, here you can take part in helping find the best food for your dish.
The hallway ends and opens up into a large circular room. In the middle of the room is a large portal. Multiple harpoons are situated around the portal. The family walks towards the portal, and inside they see an extradimensional space full of raw meat. No limit to the space can be seen.
DISCLAIMER: Entrance to the Meat Portal is reservation only. Ambrose is not responsible for injuries suffered due to close proximity to the Meat Portal. In the unlikely event of a sentient meat attack, Ambrose Restaurants is not responsible for dismemberment or death. On-site medical care is available for a premium when reserving a spot at the meat portal. Help will not be provided if patrons fall into the Meat Portal.
CHAZ
Hey! Does anyone want to try?
CHAZ is seen positioning a harpoon gun aiming into the portal. The SON raises his hand enthusiastically. CHAZ helps the SON get into firing position. The SON fires the harpoon into the meat portal.
CHAZ reels the harpoon that now has impaled a raw chunk of unidentifiable meat. Using gloves, he carefully removes the meat.
DISCLAIMER: Only operate the MeatPoons with supervision by an Ambrose employee. Children 15 and under are barred from operating the MeatPoons. Wear proper protection near the meat portal and when handling meat from the portal.
CUT to the family sitting at a teppanyaki-style table. CHAZ is handing the meat to a CHEF.
CHAZ
We hire the greatest anomalous chefs from around the world to ensure each experience is one you'll never forget. With over 87 countries represented, there's a variety that makes you want to come back time and time again. How do you like your steak?
He points at the FATHER
DISCLAIMER: Ambrose Meat Chefs will determine the optimal doneness of the meat based on the blend of meats present. Inform your Meat Chef of any dietary restrictions beforehand. Consuming raw or undercooked meats may increase your risk of foodborne illness.
The CHEF takes the meat chunk and places it on the table. It is revealed that the CHEF has four arms. The DAUGHTER oohs and ahhs. He puts on gloves and rubs his hands together. He forcefully slaps the steak, causing a shock wave that blows back the chairs of everyone seated at the table.
CUT to the steak, it is perfectly cooked. The CHEF takes four steak knives in each of his hands and cuts the meat into four equal pieces. He offers a fork to the family, who take tentative bites and express their approval.
DAUGHTER (MOUTH FULL OF FOOD)
Mmmm, it's delicious!
The family and CHAZ laugh. CHAZ turns towards the camera, smiling.
CHAZ
You heard it here folks, Ambrose is the best place to sample the anomalous in a safe and family-friendly environment. So why don't you try us out, we'll make sure your meal is one you'll never forget!
DISCLAIMER: The Amnestic Apple Pie and the Ambrose's Signature Knockout Flan induce temporary memory loss for up to 5 hours, consult your doctor or Ambrose employee about safe anomalous food consumption practices before ordering.
DISSOLVE TO Ambrose Restaurants logo.
CHAZ (SPED UP V.O)
Given the extradimensional nature of Ambrose International, Ambrose International does not have to comply with food safety regulations set by any government. For the safety of our patrons, anomalous individuals not employed by Ambrose International are prohibited from entering this location. In the unlikely event of the death of a patron of Ambrose International, compensation to their immediate family will be provided on a case-by-case basis.
Author post
Hey howdy, this is my first article to the site so that's pretty cool. Thanks to
Grigori Karpin,
Ralliston,
Pedagon, and others who I can't remember at the moment for looking it over on Discord.
[Interviewer nods his head]
POI-XXXX: That was actually where I went to school there when I was a kid, got into some trouble there- fights, drugs, that sort of thing. Had to repeat eighth grade after breaking a classmate's rib. It was surreal to walk around there again now that I was all grown up. My old English teacher even remembered me, I barely recognized her, so that was a-
Grant: I don't mean to interrupt John, but could you answer my question?
POI-XXXX: Sorry, tend to ramble. So I was friendly with all the kids, but there was one kid, can't believe I forgot his name, who really stuck with me. I never really saw him talking with the other kids, so I'd sit at a bench with him during lunch and just talk. Turns out we both have a liking for sour cream and onion chips, so I'd bring an extra pack of those with me every day. It was around a year that the arrangement continued, me bringing chips and sitting with him. He gave me it roughly around late May, about the time the school year was wrapping up. He came up to me and gave me the bag, said he made it as thanks. It was a weird gift, but I didn't want to hurt his feelings. I took it home, and that's when I found out the whole infinite sandwich business. Shortly after that, you guys came and I haven't seen him since.
[Grant was instructed via earpiece to inquire more about the child.]
Grant: Why did you bond with this child specifically?
POI-XXXX: I was an only child growing up, Mom left when I was four, and my dad was so busy all the time. My friends at school- they were my first real familyNow I'm no saint, but when I got hired I tried to make sure that the kids going there now wouldn't have to experience what I went through. I'd break up fights and help kids with homework where I could, I'd even-
Grant: What was the home life like of this child?
POI-XXXX: Pretty hard, never got to meet the parents myself, but the kid would tell me enough about them enough for me to get a good picture. They were some pretty crappy parents, sometimes he'd come to school without any food at all, so I'd try to pack an extra sandwich for him whenever I could. I wish I could've done more though, he's a good kid.
Grant: Thank you, John, I don't have any more questions. It was a pleasure talking to you.
POI-XXXX: No problem, my door is always open, metaphorically obviously.

Location of SCP-5642 phenomena.
Item #: SCP-5642
Object Class: Euclid
Special Containment Procedures: Hidden security cameras have been installed to monitor the movements of all SCP-5642-A instances. The night cleaning shift of Monument Cafe is to be conducted by Mobile Task Force Theta-10 ("Deep In The Heart") under Foundation front company "Sam's Cleanliness Provider." Any SCP-5642-A instances found during this shift are to be disposed of in the diner's dumpster.
Description: SCP-5642 refers to a series of phenomena surrounding French fries within the property of Monument Cafe, a diner in the city of Georgetown, Texas.
While they are within the diner, French fries do not decompose or spoil, but can be consumed normally and destroyed with force. This phenomenon does not occur when French fries are inside the diner's dumpster.
The secondary phenomenon surrounding the French fries occurs from 10PM to 3AM. During this time, all French fries within the diner spontaneously manifest appendages that allow for bipedal movement and the grasping of objects. Further inspection has shown these appendages are made of potato starch and water. The way the structural integrity of said appendages is kept stable is unknown.
During this window of time, French fries (hereby referred to as SCP-5642-A instances) display a limited degree of sapience, and adopt characteristics and beliefs commonly associated with the Italian-American mafia.
Observation and study of SCP-5642-A instances during this period is difficult, as SCP-5642-A instances will attempt to evade capture, and often resort to smashing themselves against the ground if cornered.
Addendum-1: On 09/03/18, an SCP-5642-A instance (hereby referred to as SCP-5642-A-1) approached a member of Theta-10, reportedly "seeking freedom in exchange for information." SCP-5642-A-1 disclosed the location of the "Carlotti Family," a collection of SCP-5642-A instances based underneath the lower left table booth. As SCP-5642-A-1 was being questioned on the organizational structure of the "Family", several SCP-5642-A instances descended from the ceiling via string, and took SCP-5642-A-1 into the ceiling tiles. Attempts to track these SCP-5642-A instances were unsuccessful.
The following video was captured by Foundation cameras the following night.
[BEGIN LOG]
The bar of the diner is dark, the camera switches to night vision. Several SCP-5642-A instances are standing on top of the bar. SCP-5642-A-1 is unconscious and is being carried by two steak fries (SCP-5642-A-2 and SCP-5642-A-3 respectively); a plastic straw wrapper can be seen covering half of its body. A paper condiment cup is placed near the group, filled with ketchup. A fourth SCP-5642-A instance (SCP-5642-A-4) walks towards SCP-5642-A-1, and takes off the wrapper.
SCP-5642-A-1: What the hell, what is-
SCP-5642-A-4 punches SCP-5642-A-1.
SCP-5642-A-1: Jesus man, what was that for?
SCP-5642-A-4: Don't play dumb, we got eyes everywhere, I saw you talking to that copper.
SCP-5642-A-1 sighs.
SCP-5642-A-1: Writing's on the wall Johnny, you hear about Lazuto's gang? All of 'em wiped out last week by those cops, they're coming after us. In a couple of weeks the Boss is probably gonna spray his starch on the wall. The cracks are forming man, new age coming, I intend to live to see it.
SCP-5642-A-4: And you sold out your own so you could get a front row seat. You know, we swore an oath when we joined, rule fucking one, don't sell out the family. You're a dirty rat, I hope you fry in hell.
SCP-5642-A-1: Look at you now, all high and mighty, being the Boss' lapdog. Y'know I remember when you first came to us, weak and soggy, barely fresh out of the fryer, tryna' score a spot in the Family. You know who vouched for you out of the whole crew? No one except for me. I made you into what you are. I'm your only friend in this goddamn diner, and don't you forget it.
SCP-5642-A-4 turns away from SCP-5642-A-1.
SCP-5642-A-4: Friends don't matter in this business Tony, only family.
SCP-5642-A-2 and SCP-5642-A-3 dunk the top portion of SCP-5642-A-1 in the ketchup cup. SCP-5642-A-1 attempts to knock the cup over, but is held down by SCP-5642-A-2 and SCP-5642-A-3. SCP-5642-A-1 squirms, but after approximately four minutes, goes limp.
SCP-5642-A-4: Make it clean boys, I don't want to see his sorry face again.
[END LOG]
One hour later Foundation monitors detected the deep fryer in the kitchen turning on. When personnel entered the kitchen, the only object in the fryer was a solitary French fry.
