Black stools after introducing solids

After introducing semi solids to my baby like cerelac, apple puree, mashed banana.. some part of her stool is black. Is this common after introducing solids or any reaction of that food.

Mostly black stools are because of iron content especially if you are giving any iron supplementation but it could be because of some undigested food particle also .
