It is rare that the transit time will be 24 hours unless the food contains substances that increases gut motility. The stewed tomatoes is not what is in your stool unless you also had diarrhea. If it continues you may want to be evaluated. There is possibility of you having hemorrhoids that may explain what you saw.
