What Causes Bright Red Ball Inside Stool?

After using the bathroom, I noticed there was a bright red ball inside of my stool. It didn't look like blood but kind of like a cherry. It was a little bigger than an m&m but was kind of transparent. For the life of me I don't remember eating anything weird, including vitamins.
