Can Eating Cranberries Cause Red Spots In Stool?

can eating cranberries cause red spots in stool? I've been eating dried cranberries on my salad every day for about a week and today there were bright red spots in my stool. I am basically a healthy 60 yr old female. About 20 lbs too heavy, but other than that no major issues
