I don't know, but...: Stool is a compacted form of insoluble things your body can't digest, and when it's in water, the stool starts breaking apart. Whatever is in your stool that is buoyant will come up to the surface. To know for sure what it is, you would have to analyze your stool. Pay attention to what you have eaten when you notice this phenomenon! and relax... It's nothing to worry about.
