So, here’s a fun topic that’s got the kids talking, both yours and those TikTok enthusiasts. Ever heard of “GHOST POOP”? Yeah, it’s been around for about a decade, chilling on Urban Dictionary. But it’s recently been making waves.
Before you get any ghostly ideas, no, it’s got nothing to do with haunted houses or spirits. It’s actually bathroom-related, but in a quirky way.
Basically, a ghost poop is when you do your business, look down, and bam! There’s nothing in the bowl. It’s like your poop pulled a disappearing act, sinking to the depths below.
Or, it’s when you’re pretty sure you’ve left a little something behind, but when you check the toilet paper, there’s nada. Magic, right?
Now, you might be wondering about the health side of things. But fear not, a ghost poop is probably not cause for concern. If your poop’s sinking, it’s likely because you’ve been chowing down on enough fiber. And if you’re not needing much TP, it just means your body’s doing its thing efficiently.
There’s also a third, less talked-about definition: when you think you’ve gone, but it’s just a bit of gas. No biggie if it’s occasional, but if it’s a regular occurrence, it might be worth chatting with your doc, as it could signal something like I.B.S. or Crohn’s disease.
So there you have it, the mystery of the ghost poop—solved!
