Completed the rainbow today. 15 years in urology but this was my first green. Patients took B2 (makes urine very yellow) and methylene blue (makes urine blue) together and here we are.

Oh yeah, reminds me of waking up to "Mom, come look at this! My poop is GREEN!"... brought to us by a cheesecake with a rainbow coloured marble effect.

Your kid has a fast digestive track. Goddamn. (I mean this positivity. I have really bad gut speed, and spent something like the first seven years of my life extremely constipated)

I also had green poop but it was from eating bright blue sweets

If I drink too much dark blue or purple gatorade it does that too me.

I've had it happen with Crunch berries, Lucky Charms, that bomb pop flavored mountain dew they had last year. All of which contained copious amounts of Bkue 1 Lake food dye.
