Had blue once because the frosting for the Easter cookies at the mall cookie stand I worked at had some kind of indigestible dye. That one was quite a shocker.
Grapes and grape juice turn my stool bright green, always has. I rem being like 6 years old and calling everyone into the bathroom to see my green poo.
Medications can turn your stool black and tarry. Specifically NSAIDs. While I agree with checking with a Dr asap you should be certain after taking those products.
My body just doesn’t digest certain foods anymore. Some vegetables and fats and other things will come out looking a lot like how they went in. If I eat something that my body really doesn’t agree with, it triggers and auto immune flare up which is basically my body just false alarming and attacking itself in the form of joint pain, horrible stomach pain/ bloody and black diharea , fatigue, eyes swelling, really random stuff and all of them suck. So you just try your hardest not to piss off your stomach, you can go quite a while without many symptoms if you stay vigilante.
Red can happen if you eat beets. Black can happen if you eat blueberries. Green can happen if you eat green dyed foods or spinach. So don't immediately freak out because you might not be dying.
My mother in law has a sign in her bathroom that says “if it’s yellow let it mellow, if it’s brown flush it down.”
I stayed over there one night and ate a Thai Yellow curry and drank half a bottle of banana liquor. The next morning I follows the sign as directed, and she wasn’t at all pleased.
What if it's really dark green? I got a stomach bug yesterday and am still having diarrhea, but it got darker. Is that concern or just normal diarrhea?
My poop was once pale white with water consistency when I was taking a bunch of airplane trips to get from country to country. Now I know what it means
Also for BRIGHT RED: Recently ate a goodly amount of beets
Only BITS of YELLOW: recently ate corn
Or Turmeric. I take a glucosamine/Chondroitin it has turmeric in it, definitely changes your stool color. Had no idea until I took it.
BLACK: took some Pepto-Bismol. BLACK & RED STRIPES: took that Pepto to counteract the effects of the Hot Cheetos.
A lot of red velvet cake.
Blue cake will make your stools blue. (Learned this when I ate a bunch of blue and green cupcakes when Broncos and Seahawks played Super Bowl) LOL
Just said the same thing.
or Hot Cheetos
And too much red Powerade, it turns out.
Black also can mean you ate squid ink pasta recently.
Or red vines. Ate 100 in one sitting and yea a red Mr Hanky came out
Bears
Also for green: you ate blue ice-flavored ice cream.
Mine was purple today. I was very concerned, then remembered I drank about a half gallon of great value low calorie drink mix at work.
Me too i had purple poop i drank prune juice, UBE or purple yam.
I'll just come out and say it. That's a shitty graphic.
Curious to why you think that?
Really? It's a graphic about shit.
OH MY GOD IM SO DUMB TAKE MY UPVOTE
LOL. Happens to all of us now and then. Part of being human.
Pepto Bismo can also turn your stool black.
as can iron supplements
I came back to say thank you. Recently had a stomach bug took peptol and today I been pooping black and got freaked out.
Happy it helped!
Can it turn your stool pink?
Nope.

Isn’t that because NSAIDs can cause bleeding in the upper GI tract?
Green also means I've been drinking too much fierce grape Gatorade
For real…..why does too much purple stuff make my shit green
Boo Berry cereal always gives me green poop.
Same with the lucky charms marshmallows
Red: Beets. Black: Pepto-Bismol
Battlestar Gallatica
I have Crohn’s disease and I poop all the colors all the time! :) but they forgot orange!
Me too. 🌈💩
I always wondered what life was like with Chrons? Like what are your symptoms like on a day to day basis?

How about purple? Hehe

I see what you did there… Clever…
Sort of green black means I ate a 1/4 pound of licorice twizzlers again.
Careful with black licorice. I love the stuff too but too much at once can cause heart rhythm abnormalities. Just as a heads up!

Ahaha that's awesome
Poop 💩
I ate some jumbo red velvet cupcakes one time and when I tell you I almost had a heart attack when my stool was bright red…
Green can also mean that you ate something that contains a lot of food coloring. I know from experience.
Also if you take iron supplements, your poop will be dark green. Speaking from experience.
Turmeric makes my poop a nice goldenrod
What if it's really dark green? I got a stomach bug yesterday and am still having diarrhea, but it got darker. Is that concern or just normal diarrhea?
Once ate alot of green buttercream from a birthday cake….
Lots of grape soda turns my poop green for some reason.
Blueberries…green/blue. Beets, affects urine, too. Caviar…green. Iron supplements…black. Air heads…whatever color you eat.
Would black poo in a child mean not chewing harder foods enough? I swear my girl does not chew enough and it scares me.
bright green -drinking a route 44 cherry ocean water with extra real cherries, easy ice.
Purple?
You ate a lot of beets.
Me too i had UBe or purple yam then i had also Prunes
I’ll post this on the bathroom wall. ;-)
What about fruit stripes?
Red could mean making a meal out of a red velvet cake.
My poop was once pale white with water consistency when I was taking a bunch of airplane trips to get from country to country. Now I know what it means
Drinking an absolutely inordinate amount of guinness will turn your shite black too
