Answers:
Don't sweat it, The same thing happens if you eat black licorace!. Causes of black colored stools (known as melena) could be from:
- acidified blood
- blood from higher in the digestive tract
- iron supplements or foods high in iron
- Pepto-Bismol or other medicines containing bismuth
- black licorice
- large amounts of spinach or other greens
- blueberries
- aspirin
- other foods dark in color such as chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreos)

But there is also a chance it could be from your stomach bleeding so if it keeps happening you should contact your doctor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I had red poop once and thought I was going to die!. Then I remembered I had eaten an ENTIIIIIIIIRE "thing" of Red Vines!. Sometimes I order Starbucks' green tea latte just because it makes my poop green!. I HATE pooping so I am game for anything that will make the experience more fun lol!. In your case, it was probably the Gatorade!.!.!. or something similar from the previous day!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
