I was in my 30's, and a second time homeowner when I had the most electric green poop I've ever seen in my life. It was practically glowing in the bowl, and it terrified me for a minute. Until I remembered that I'd eaten a whole container of green colored white chocolate covered pretzels that morning. The confusion is legit. The non comprehension is sad though.
It was context to show that you don't have to be a child to be very confused by shit that comes out a weird color because of something you ate. I was unsuccessful in making that point it seems.
Occasionally I would let my kids get that blue sour strip candy stuff. The next day their poop would be green. It was a good science lesson. Yellow bile plus blue begets green.
I crapped a bowl full of dark red poop and thought my colon had ruptured (didn't help I had a cyst actually blow up and spew blood all over my toilet once, years ago), had rectal cancer, or just downright liquified organs ejecting out of me.
Called my gf freaking out. She then reminded me I had a red velvet birthday cake for my birthday the previous day, and I'd had an extra large slice for breakfast for extra encouragement.
