Can red food coloring in food make your stool red?
Red velvet cake, beets, foods which use red dye #40, kool aide, Gatorade and even tomatoes and peppers on occasion can make stool red. Also don't listen to people who say you have to "eat a lot of" a red food coloring to make your stool red - not true! A red velvet cup cake or a single beverage can do it! The things to look out for are do you see the red stool within 16 hours of consumption of the red food coloring and does it resolve within a few bowel movements. If not, see your Doctor.
