For the last 3-4 weeks or so, I have been on a vegan diet. Last night; however, I had some Mexican food (bean burrito, no cheese, covered with this very greasy orange sauce). Well, since last night I have gone to the bathroom 3 times, and each time there were orange oily droplets floating on the water (after bowel movement). I have no other symptoms such as abdominal pain, blood in stool, etc. but I'm still worried as I have never seen/experienced this before. I am hoping that it is all due to the Mexican food I had, especially since I haven't had anything so greasy in the last 3-4 weeks. I have been reading other people's posts (on different sites), and each person reported having eaten cashews prior to this happening. That was not my case, which is the reason I am posting this.
Any ideas???
