SCP-871 | Self-Replacing Cake (SCP Orientation)



SCP Orientation is an archive of files of the SCP Foundation.

Today we will be studying Item number SCP-871: Self-Replacing Cake, Object class: Keter.

SCP-871 is a collection of 237 cakes. Instances of SCP-871 vary widely in appearance and size, covering the entire range of foods described by humans as “cake”. When any instance of SCP-871 is consumed by a human or a collection of humans, it is replaced approximately 24 hours afterward with a similar cake.

SCP-871’s danger originates in the consequences of an instance not being eaten. Any instance of SCP-871 which is not consumed will cause a new cake to be created in its vicinity after 24 hours.

As there is no known mechanism for halting SCP-871’s replication, any uncontained instances could replicate exponentially, quickly becoming unmanageable. It is estimated that an uncontrolled outbreak originating with a single instance would render the earth uninhabitable within 80 days.

  1. Site director: To all researchers involved in SCP 871 research, the word "cake" does NOT refer to the gluteus maximus, no matter how the colloquial definition has changed since containment. All avenues into this "research" are to be closed, immediately.

  2. overindulgence or binge of consuming foods just to fulfill insatiable " sweet tooth " cravings would eventually lead to heartburn , indigestion , gastrointestinal tract acid reflux or worse if uncontrolled , mismanaged or whatever

    you won't get indigestion by merely swallowing your whole pride down to your narrow or congested tummy should you choose to wilfully disobey your own conscience due to being guilty to one of the Seven ( 7 ) Deadly — be it Mortal-type or Venial — Sin according to Saint Francis of Asisi : GLUTTONY

    committing stubborn Compunction would yield to severe consequences
