A member asked:
What could cause white specks in stool? they're very small, almost like seeds or bits of feta cheese. rest of stool is brown.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not feta: Feta cheese would not look the same coming out, but sesame and other small seeds do look almost identical in your stool. Otherwise unless you are sick in some way , having unintentional weight loss, blood in stool, then this is unlikely to be significant and almost certainly something you ate.
