Why does my poop smell like what I just ate?

Dropping the kids off at the pool right now w// my smart phone (technology is awesome..) and I notice my crap smells like the food I just ate an hour ago. This is far from being the first time this has happened. If it takes your body near a day to digest (more or less depending on the person obviously) food, why does the aftermath smell like what I just had recently?

    That means you aren't fully digesting your food. You should probably go see a doctor. It happened to me once and the doctor said that it was stress forcing my body to push the food through faster than it should. It's really draining and unhealthy.
