Been on a diet, eating more fruits and vegetables. every time i poop. a piece of poop bends in half without breaking. is that normal?

When your diet changes, your stool tends to change also-sometimes in consistency, color, etc. So, your stool as described could be due to your dietary changes. If you are feeling ok, it is likely fine but if you are concerned, see your doctor. Good luck to you!
