joe,
You're right the color of your stool is determine alot by what you eat.
The color from light brown to darker is not only determined by the color of the food you eat but how the gallbladder is activated to with the amount of Bile. Some things like coffee causes the gallbladder to put out alot of bile resulting in a darker stool. And eating greens will produce a darker sometimes almost blackish stool.
Bland type food causes a light brown stool.
