SCP-839

SCP-839-Candied Worms is a Safe class SCP from Series I, it was created by Salman Corbette. 
SCP-839 appears to be a species of annelid composed of sugar, coloring, and flavoring. A microscopic label stating "CANDIED WORMS" is found near each instance's posterior. SCP-839 is mainly found in temperate areas. SCP-839's main diet seems to be decomposing organic matter, however when there is no decomposing matter then it will eat live plants. 
When SCP-839 is ingested by a mammal, it will burrow through the stomach lining and towards a specific organ. The specific organ depends on the "Flavor" of the SCP. SCP-839 will then attach itself to the organ and slowly ingest it. While the organ disappears, SCP-839 will the change its shape and will slowly look like the organ it just ingested. SCP-839 DOES NOT act as a perfect replacement for the organ and other effects may occur. SCP-839 has a average lifespan of about 3 years.
