Before I get started, I know everyone has their own likes and dislikes. I have a younger brother, who asbolutely despises soup. Yesterday, I was having simple tomato soup when he comes in the room, he puts his shirt over his nose "gawd, smells worse than a barn' and runs to his room, I mean come on what's wrong with it? I urged him to try it, but he keeps claiming it smells too bad. I mean, the guy likes everything tomato related, like, ketchup, in food, in salad, hell he even likes tomato juice, why he doesn't like tamato soup is beyond me really. I want to get him to at least...just...try it! Any Suggestions?

Have him try chicken noodle soup, a commonly loved soup by many people.
And he likes Tomato juice? That's nasty af.
He wouldn't even come close to chicken soup, let alone try it. The reason I am getting him to try tomato soup is because he loves tomato's

I know, I have tried it a few times actually.

1) Force Feed him.

2) Trick him into believing it's Tomato Juice.

3) Make a dare with a nice reward if he takes Tomato Soup.
1. Can't do that, he's quite big
2. He's quite smart to be fooled with a feeble trick like that
3. The award he wants would be worth 600x more than the soup itself. But it might actually work, tho.

That's kind of like the way I am with spinach, although I'm not quite as extreme. The only suggestion I have is to offer some sort of reward or something. Why do you want him to try it out though?

What is so important about making him try soup? Taste buds change every seven or so years. He might come to like it later in life, or if he's ever poor and living off chicken noodle soup and bag ramen.

Buy the one that has numbers/letters or that kewl superhero thingys as pasta, make it look cool to him. If you're doing a tomato soup, put some whipped cream on top of it, it will look interesting and taste even better. Try to make colorful cream veggy soups aswell and apply the same whipped cream trick. :)

Just talk to him and ask him to try it once and tell him you won't bother him about it again.
If likes then fine, if he doesn't likes it respect his wishes.

I just want him to give it one try, like just one tiny sip, he doesn't even do that. Seriously, for a guy who loves tomatos he sure is persistant.

Ironically, eight years ago he hated it as well. I'm naturally inclined to at least make him try, which he just won't do.

Oh...hahahha my bad than... Well try the whipped cream trick definitely, and tell him like "u'll surely get laid if u eat this soup, chicks dig that" Idk. XD

But seriously the whipped cream should do the trick, since that is the professional way of serving tomato soup, it contrasts the soup and fulfills it's taste to the top. Trust me, I'm a chef. :)

Put it in his mouth while he sleeps
Ohh You should've come to my aid earlier, what a nice and simple solution. I'll just pray he doesn't barge out the blanket chasing me drenched in soup.

LMFAO no probs. That's gives me an idea, you know I might just add some green food colour in it, and convince him it's jelly... well, a very funky looking green jelly.
