This will pass out your poop in a few days with no problems. It is certainly not any worse than the strange objects you likely swallowed as a toddler. Other than your surprise at swallowing the material, you should not spend any more time thinking about it.

This will not be likely to cause any trouble. It will be eliminated with your bowel movements, and you may or may not see it in the toilet. Good luck.
