I had white stool this morning. the first part was white and the rest was brown. i ate 3 bananas last night, could that cause it? or is this serious?

No worries: Stool color is determined by multiple factors, one of which obviously is what you eat. If it doesn't happen again, I wouldn't worry about it, especially if you don't have any other symptoms.
