“Too many” kinda sounds right to my ear because beans is plural, but the second logically seems right because its served by volume and is not ‘countable’ as ordinary (non-destroyed) beans might be.

    One noodle/ a bowl of noodles. Or one bean, a bowl of beans.

    But you wouldn’t say: one rice. You’d say one grain of rice. So it’s like rice is automatically a mass of many individual bits/grains of rice. Beans are not that way, they’re countable.

      Not after they’ve been refried.

      Consider a potato and mashed potatoes.
