It's entirely possible to have clean, whole beans in a burrito. It's unusual in commercial kitchens because whole beans are kept warm in the cooking broth until service to avoid drying out. The preparer will scoop them out with a slotted spoon to drain, but usually they're in too much of a hurry to fully drain it. Product photos don't rush this step because a soggy burrito doesn't look good on camera and they also undercook things so the ingredients don't mush. AI tools have ingested a lot more product photos than real burritos.
