Food in the stool: Some foods are not digested well. A classic example would be corn which frequently comes out like it goes in.

Not uncommon: To recognize partially digested items like corn, nuts, seeds or even colors like red for beets or yellow for curry. Passing undigested food is not normal. Thanks for Trusting HealthTap!

Stool: A bit of food in the stool is OK particularly once the colonoscopy is OK as it is in your case.
