Bean and cheese burritos are perhaps the perfect budget healthy meal.
All you need is a crock pot.
Lots of fiber.
Super tasty.
Costs pennys per meal.

Why aren't you enjoying a bean and cheese?

it's even cheaper if you grow your own beans, cows, and tortillas

It might be cheaper. But its really a very complex calculation. It depends mostly on how much you value your own time, how much economies of scale reduces prices of related store-bought goods, the amount of money that transportation costs increase the prices of these goods, the profit margin on those goods, and the start-up costs of such an operation (which could instead be used to invest in something that might give you some other kind of profit).

I am willing to bet that for most people it would be more expensive to start such an operation that it would be to just buy the materials themselves.

Whats wrong with that? I generally soak over night and then rinse before slow cooking.

Speaking of which, how do you get nice flavorful soft beans? Mine always seem to come out bland even if I add a ton of stuff with them and even if I slow cook on low forever they still never come out quite like canned beans do.

I feel like more water might help soften and cook them better, but then flavor is a bigger issue. Do people generally soak, cook to soft, and then cook again with flavors?

So how does that un-do the healthiness of the beans?

Also, if you're worried about a mere 8 to 12 grams of fat then perhaps you might revisit your diet as a whole. If that little fat is a concern then there are far larger issues in your diet than whether or not you put cheese on your tortillas. Either that or you're making a proverbial mountain out of a molehill.

It doesn't. It just makes eating a healthy burrito completely pointless.

Yeah no. It doesn't work that way anon.
A little cheese does not poison the burrito.
Your vegan worldview is bullshit.

Not the Ano n you're responding to, but you are right. Cheese does not poison a burrito. But an application of cheese like in OP's pic disqualifies it as a "healthy" food item.

The verdict that cheese is unhealthy doesn't come from vegans, it's just the result of scientific inquiry

Cheese is is an exelent source of protein and and dietary fat.

Fuck that. I'm a fan of tasty food, and I'm a fan of cheese. But calling foods high in saturated fat "healthy" is landwhale logic. They can be part of a healthy diet, sure, but not a particularly large part of it.
