There are a few reasons why tomato soup may seem hotter than other soups:
Acidity: Tomatoes are acidic, and this acidity can affect the perception of temperature. Acids can stimulate the pain receptors in the mouth, making it feel like the soup is hotter than it actually is.
Spices: Many tomato soup recipes include spices such as cayenne pepper or chili flakes, which can also give the perception of heat.
Serving temperature: Some tomato soup recipes are traditionally served hot, and may be reheated to a higher temperature than other soups.
Bowl size and shape: Tomato soup is often served in a bowl with a wide surface area, which can cause the soup to cool more slowly than other soups served in deeper, narrower bowls.
Overall, while tomato soup may not be inherently hotter than other soups, factors such as acidity, spices, serving temperature, and bowl shape can affect the perception of heat.

It seems odd to me that the bowl with a wide surface area would result in the contents cooler slower rather than quicker. Can anyone enlighten me on the physics involved?
Btw Dux, I gather the temp on Venus depends v much on where on that planet you happen to measure it, as it seems that the temp at Venus's poles may be colder than anywhere on Earth. HTH.

The answer is the explanation. If you'd like me to be more explicit: you are wrong in your original assertion, so the "why" query is redundant.
