Taste and smell are at least partially tied together. Try to eat something with your nose plugged, flavor will be at least partially muted. We all get this when we are sick. I think it would have to be the sense of taste, even without our taste receptors we can still smell the things we shove in our faceholes. I say taste because most of the time i cram food into my mouth and swallow it so quickly that i barely taste it until i burp. Im a fast eater.
Just throwing this out there but there are a few more "senses" than the 5 most commonly known. Some are arguably tied to the 5, some are not. Mentioning it in case someone wants to research them.
PS: I voted wrong, lol. -1 from smell/ +1 to taste.
