You might have a gallbladder problem. Bile helps the body break down fats in the diet. If there is a problem with bile production, the stool can become fatty, waxy, or oily looking.
Go see a doctor, describe your symptoms, and get it checked out.

It could actually be oil. Do you eat a lot of oily foods? Fish, salads which may have a lot of oil in the dressing? If so, then it could be that you eat so much that some of it passes through your digestive system without being digested and comes out with your stool.
You didn't say whether your stool was loose like oil might make it or at the very least is it moving very easily like it is being lubricated well.
Maybe someone is spiking your food with mineral oil or something. Who knows, there could be a number of reasons.
Good luck.

Stay away from that greasy food. But if it is oil thats good,it will help you pass your stool easier.

It is most likely fats or oils from the foods you have been eating lately. If you haven't been eating fatty, greasy, or oily foods then you should talk to your doctor about it.

What lipids in your diet are not being dealt with. Check with your doctor about this. This could be a problem or it could be something like irritable bowel syndrome.

Do you think its engine or transmission oil?If its a black colour its engine oil,that means your head gasket is blown and requires head removal.
