Rarely is it caused by anything serious. Kids that drink lots of (grape) purple colored drinks will get green stool. Eating lots of blueberries will give you green stool. It also indicates that what you ate just went thru you quicker then normal, like when you are sick with diarrhea.

Green Stool Indicates

I feed my rats a colorful mix of parrot food, and their stools are often blue, green, purple, pink, all colors! They've been OK so far from it (about 2-1/2 years now.) Probably the same effect with humans, but I don't feel like eating the parrot food to find out...

Green stool simply means "rapid transit" through your intestines. The stool was passed through quickly and wasn't exposed to bile for a lengthy period in the intestines, which turns it brown.
It can be a random thing, and if has only happened once, don't worry. It can be caused by certain medications and mild food poisoning, for example.
If it happens often and/or for a prolonged period of time, see your doctor to be screened for GI diseases, particularly Celiac Disease.

Whatever meds and drinks he's had, the bacteria and infection from his cold has passed through his body, it's better that it's all coming out. Just like when you blow your nose, something's amiss when it's not clear. Give him some real apple juice and make him eat a banana.

It necessarily means that something you ate had a high level of food dye in it maybe a great amount of blue dye or green dye. It wont hurt you or get you sick or anythings it just means you ate too much of that particular food item. My mother is a nurse. I think I should know.

Are you taking iron? that will do it. Did you eat something that was very green or ingest something with green food coloring?

All of the above, but it could also indicate a virus
