Depending on how long it lasts, this may be nothing more than a temporary annoyance: a number of common medications have a side effect of making your tongue feel numb; also, certain Allergies can cause numbness of the tongue; dental problems like the need for a root canal can cause this symptom sometimes; and of course, eating really cold food can cause this as well. But if it persists, you certainly want to tell your doctor, so that he or she can rule out more serious conditions.

Why can't I taste foods 2 and a half days after i got my tongue pierced?

The reason you can't taste anything is because your tongue is most likely infected. You should seek professional medical treatment for this. Tongue piercings can be very serious and if they get infected they can rot and decay until nothings left. The symptoms are as follows: Food has little or no taste, tongue is swollen/abnormally large, tongue goes numb at random or is numb for extended periods of time, and hemorrhaging of the taste buds.
