Can spicy foods cause wierd stool?!


Question: Can spicy foods cause wierd stool?
Few minutes ago i went to the bathroom and when i looked at my stool i noticed that it was brown but had tiny yellow spots on it. I did eat some corn in this mexican food i had yesterday but im not fully sure. Also the toilet water was light greenish so idk whats going on. Could eating spicy food caused this? Ive been eating spicy foods for lunch for the past 2 days now and hadn't gone to the bathroom till now so is this the cause of my problem?

From what I know, spicy foods actually help your body rid of waste (stool) at a faster pace. So that mean less time for digestion. Also, if you have had a lot of food/drinks that are dyed green can cause the green coloration.The same thing happens when you eat beets, except the water will be magenta-ish. If you were at a mexican restaurant I'm sure you had corn and that doesn't digest well, so that stays whole. If your stool is ultimately brown than you are doing fine.
