What Causes Blood Red Color Stool After Eating Cheetos?

This may seem like a silly question. I ate some hot cheetoes earlier. I ve never had any issues with poop color being red after eating them. I just had a bowl movement and it was red, like blood red. Could it be from the cheetoes? It only worries me because I had a total hysterectomy 8 weeks ago and I m not sure if it s blood or just from eating the hot cheetoes.

HI
Well come to HCM
Of course the stool color could be red but this may not be due to blood but could be due to some food, still to clear the doubt stool can be sent for analysis, if you do not have any symptoms like abdominal pain particularly during or prior to defecation, or after this then this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care.
