I wonder if he gave away his taste as a payment for a wish that has yet to be given.
This is a neat idea, and I completely believe that's the case now!

It's sort of very wrong that I think giving up his taste is as angst-inducing as giving up the memory of his parents, isn't it? But! It's Watanuki!

If true, it's also indicative of how much he's already given up.

I know! And it's even more angsty amnesia!

I don't think Kohane is gone because [spoilers for I think recent chapters of xxxHolice and I think around 180 of Tsubasa] I think Kohane is either real!Sakura or the soul of clone!Sakura. Fei Wong Reed-or however it's spelled-said real!Sakura's body disintegraetd when he made clone!Sakura, and clone!Sakura's soul turned into Sakura petals, and at the time, I got the impression that was at least partly deliberate on her part, so that he wouldn't be able to use her soul. During her mother's flashback, she says she had Kohane 9 months after being swamped by a mysterious (and, I think, out of season) cloud of sakura petals. When the bit with Kohane having a feather is revealed, Yuuko mentions that the timeline doesn't add up, too. *spends far too much time coming up with Tsubasa/xxxHolic theories, and is now coming up with Mokona theories after reading Magic Knight Rayearth.

ETA: Oh! And I noticed recetnly that I don't think we've ever seen Watanuki eating, which makes me wonder if this is one of those things where he can't eat in ( ... )

Oh huh! That's really interesting and I never thought of that! I am going to have to go back and reread!

IT WAS MY FIRST THOUGHT!!!

But...uhm...that was when I read about 10 volumes of the 2 combined in about a week.

Though that's also kinda wht I'm doing now...
