Something Odd In The Vomitus. What Could It Be?

Hi,
I hope you're prepared. My problem is very icky. Earlier tonight I felt ill and needed to vomit, Somehow, I noticed something odd in the vomitus itself - something I have never seen before. Mind you, I do not make it a habit to look more closely at gross things, but I couldn't miss this. There was an object - about 1inch long and had the bore of a Sharpies marker. The "package" had been emeted but was clearly not "mixing" with the rest of the vomitus. This "package" had a color and texture similar to pasta. Since I was already in the process of being violently ill, I actually opened the package. Its contents seemed to be a whitish powder or whitish yellow clumps. Oddly, the clumps appeared completely dry (although I would not swear to such a thing) I can tell you that I am certain the package is "organic," made by my own body. Keeping in mind that I am not in the habit of ingesting anything but normal food, do you have any ideas about this?

Most probably it is the undigested & unabsorbed part of any capsule that you have taken before the vomitus.
