It could be: a undigested fiber of something a tape worm might be excreted via the rectum but if concerned see your doctor if it happens again

See Dr.: Try to think what you ate n the last few days. Some foods are not readily digestible and may come out as the cam in. An intestinal worm is always a possibility too, so best to see the Dr for this occurrence.
