Hamsters stuff there mouths to store food (but they do not eat the food) but they save it for later or they move it to a different place. If your talking about stuffing it's bedding (hay, fluff or shredded paper) they normally do it to cover them self to go to sleep because they can't just pick up the bedding and cover themselves, they have to get comfortable then place the fluff on top of them.

Why is poop bad to eat?

Easy but insanely disgustingly question. The brown stuff is the leftovers of food. However, since the nutrition of the food is consumed, The brown stuff is basically the junk and trash of the food.
