Item #: SCP-ZH-006
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: The object is currently housed in a low-temperature dry freezer in the Site-ZH-13 Safe holding area and seed samples are kept in the seed bank while MTF vehicle Rampage 8 (Shopping Crowd) is dispatched to acquire the remaining items on the market, and agents have traced the items to the most upstream suppliers and acquired the remaining stock. No personnel are allowed to bring heat-producing equipment near the project during non-experimental phases.
Description: SCP-ZH-006 is a popcorn species of the genus (Zea mays L. var. everta Sturt.), a mutation of Shen-Pop No. 3, which produces popcorn with a butterfly-like appearance.
The anomalous effect is a small explosion when the object reaches 191 degrees Celsius.According to the experiment, SCP-ZH-006 will give different stimuli to the olfactory epithelium and taste receptor cells of different consumers, resulting in different tastes for different consumers, usually the most preferred taste for the consumer. When the object is heated, the colour changes from yellow to red depending on the current heat storage capacity and the basic specific heat capacity of the object is 500cal/g°C according to staff analysis.
The explosion area of the object will be filled with the smell of popcorn 48 hours after the explosion. Any wounds caused by the object will emit the smell of popcorn and the dense hair on the body will expand to six times its original size. The hairs return to their original state after six hours without any subsequent effects.
Containment record: The object resulted in a small explosion at the Taipei ██ cinema on 20██/█/█. Apart from one person with 70% burns and some damage to cinema property, there were no injuries or damage, which was discovered and reported by a passing Dr. Sugoi. During the week, two similar incidents occurred again at other cinemas and convenience stores in the Taipei and New Taipei city, reported by agents posing as firefighters, and considered by the foundation to be an anomaly, agents were dispatched to search and take the objects in after they were confirmed to be anomalies.
According to the foundation, the most upstream suppliers of the project were found in ██ province in China, and it is suspected that the crop Shen-Pop No. 3 was turned into a object due to the inadvertent use of fertilizers produced by Prosperity Chemical.
The three cases arising from the object resulted in two people sustaining 80% burns to their bodies, one person sustaining 70% burns to his body and approximately NT$███ million in property damage.
Experiment A__ — [20██/█/█]
Experimental Objective: Confirm that the object explosion must reach the temperature.
Experimental Process: Enables Class D officer to use the equipment to transfer heat to the project in the form of radiant heat, transferring ████ joules per second.
Experimental Results: The object absorbed ████ joules of heat energy and exploded at 191°C. The object was witnessed to gradually change colour from yellow to red as it heated up, the wounds caused by the explosion emitted the smell of popcorn and the hair of the participant, the hair of the Class D officer was restored to its original state after six hours without any subsequent effects.
Experimental Analysis: The temperature required for the object to explode is 191 degrees Celsius, the object will change colour due to the increased heat energy stored, the wounds caused by the object will emit the smell of popcorn and the hair aggregation on the surface of the injured organism will expand to six times its original size, the hair will return to its original state after six hours without any subsequent effects.
Experiment B__ — [20██/█/█]
Experimental Objective: Verify that the popcorn produced by the object is not harmful to humans.
Experimental Process: Two Class D officers consumed popcorn made from the project.
Experimental Results: The two Class D officers reported a different taste and after 24 hours, the two Class D officers had no physical abnormalities.
Experimental Analysis: The popcorn made from this object is non-toxic and has different flavours depending on who is eating it.
Experiment C__ — [20██/█/█]
Experimental Objective: To verify that the popcorn produced by this object has a different flavour depending on the person consuming it.
Experimental Process: Have six Class D officers(D-100, D-101, D-102, D-103, D-104, D-110) consume the popcorn made from the object at the same time.
Experimental Results: See table below.
Experimental Analysis: The popcorn made from this object will have different flavours depending on who is eating it.Experimental Results Table
