If you are taking extra iron it can also turn it black. I'm taking extra iron and mine is sometimes black and I take it twice a day.

From what I looked up, it could be dark due to things you ate of a certain colour.... or it could be a sign of a little blood in the digestive tract.

If it's black, sticky and smells bad, that is definitely cause for concern, apparently.
