  • High fiber content most likely. Fats (like oils used for cooking) and similar can also increase how fast things move through. Also just general different composition if you have a poor variety in your diet (like I do sometimes) can make for more surprises.

    If you don’t normally eat a lot of fiber (like most people should do, especially old people), a sudden influx can really make for some interesting mornings, especially if there’s a lot for your body to clean out.

    It could very well be clearing out some minor backup. You should analyze your diet for recommended amounts of fiber and other similar things and eat more of them, not less.

    The poop doesn’t magically materialize. If you’re pooping more than you ate, you have backup, and should eat more things that keep your bowels going healthily.

    P.S. You should get used to eating cooked veggies. That alone could be a good part of your problems. Some flavors are fantastic and you’re definitely missing out. Even some properly seasoned and baked brussels sprouts are delicious, and a lot of people claim to not like them (although they’ve definitely gotten sweeter and more palatable over the last ~20 years). Broccoli is great in many things, especially Chinese. Carrots are great in pot roasts. Cauliflower is delicious grilled and seasoned. The lists goes on… Though IMO, water chestnuts can fuck right off.
