    I have been to the Far East 9 or 10 times, and I am married to a Filipina. Also, several of my coworkers are from the Pacific Rim. It’s cultural. Filipinos, as well as others from that part of the world, will smack their lips. A host will perceive this as a subtle sign that her meal is good. At my work, it appears that my Vietnamese coworkers will smack their lips even louder. (I am sure that none of them are aware that they could be annoying.) By the way, my Filipina wife does not smack her lips when eating.
