I majored en Espanol, and never once heard the term "beaner". What the heck does it mean?

You don't have to be explicit if the connotations are that bad. Just a little hint will do, McGoo, LOL.

It's a derogatory in reference to the fact that poor Mexicans eat a lot of beans. Another food-related Mexican derogatory is "taco-bender".
