You didn't include a free food allowance for the beans at the start of the calculation. Do that and you will find it is syn free

Pulses are a free food so the product get a special allowance. At the start of the syn calculator there are drop down menus where you get the chance to choose the free foods that apply on each plan. This will significantly reduce the syn value. At the moment, without including the allowance, you are effectively synning the beans at the rate they would be on a red day. There is a Help icon next to the calculator if you are still confused.
