The soup leaked onto the man from a jar in an overhead locker on a flight from Budapest to Dublin on Monday, the airline said.
His neck reportedly swelled up and he struggled to breathe, forcing the plane to divert for emergency medical help.
On the same day, another Ryanair flight had to make an unscheduled landing in France after losing cabin pressure.
A spokeswoman for Ryanair said the jar contained "a vegetable oil/mushroom soup type substance".
"It is procedure when a passenger requires medical attention to divert to the nearest airport," she said.
"The cabin crew and pilot take that decision."
The Boeing 737 landed at Frankfurt Hahn Airport where the man was treated by doctors.
The plane was delayed for two hours before continuing its journey to Dublin.
