We've tried not letting him have any other food at all, figuring he'd get hungry - he starved himself out.
This was going to be my suggestion. How exactly did this play out? How long did he go without food?
You might just need to accept that he has a stronger will than you. (only kind of joking).

We only went 24 hours with no food - we let him have milk though, so that was probably the mistake that kept him full enough to not eat. Maybe not long enough either.
Tried smoothies (even w/o hiding anything in it) and he won't touch it. He caught us hiding a vegetable in spaghetti before, but I'll try again. I didn't think about hiding it in a dessert though, he would probably be less discerning there.
And no, I'm not worried about the dude's overall health or that he'll grow up to be 5'6" - I realize this will pass - but his genes suggest he'll be tall, and I don't want him to get to first grade looking like he was just liberated from Auschwitz.
