His sense of smell. It is one of the main reasons why Gandalf chooses Bilbo as the 14th member of the Company (because while Smaug would be familiar with the smell of Dwarf, the smell of Hobbit "would be all but unknown to him").

Their only keen sence is sight and they wont eat anything unless it moves (I think they enjoy the taste!!!). Although their hearing is quite "keen" too. Their smell is not very good but they love to recognise their food or people by taste (e.g.; mouthing you or licking with their tongue). Hope this helps.

What factors define a persons identity in the Hobbit?

It depends on what you mean by "person". Very few of the characters in The Hobbit are actually human beings. So part of a character's identity must be their species. It most books that is not an issue, but in The Hobbit it matters whether we are talking about a dwarf, hobbit, elf, or dragon. Another important factor is names. Tolkien was a linguist and names were very important to him, even in The Hobbit where he is writing for children.
