      a hard time eating tomatoes straight up as a soup

      Tomato soup is one of the seven food wonders of the world, a good tomato soup with some croutons is prime comfort food. You should give it another shot

      It’s such a delight to try tomato soups from different cuisines ie Turkish, South Asian, Chinese, etc

      I find cherry tomatoes too sweet straight up

      I usually roast them with a little salt and pepper and it gives them a nicer depth of flavor

      Tomato soup is the same, I gotta roast those bad boys for a bit before I soupify them

      Only time I prefer raw tomato is on a nice tomato sandwich and it’s got to be an immaculate tomato for that

      i also strongly dislike tomato and love tomato adjacent dishes. only way i can eat tomato soup is with a grilled cheese. there’s other types of tomato soup that are better tho because they add basil or cream or other stuff, i like those more but still need a grilled cheese
