喜樂美語
  1. 1令人垂涎的、超好吃的（廣告裡常用，口語比較少這樣講）

    Lip-smacking food tastes very good — so good you want to smack your lips, that little wet sound people make when something is delicious. You will see this word far more in advertisements than at a real table: lip-smacking sauce, lip-smacking flavour. It is cheerful, a bit salesy, and a bit old now. Younger speakers more often say delicious, , or just so good. It usually sits before a noun. It is praise for taste, not a rude comment about noisy eating, though that picture is where the word comes from.

組成From the phrase smack one’s lips — to make that tasting sound with your lips. lip + smacking.
