Bento Box Bits of everything

Why do some Chinese people eat so loudly. It's not just the mainlanders. On the Japan tour there was a HK couple who smacked their lips while eating and talked with their mouth full. Could it be a cultural thing? Like how the Japanese slurp their noodles. It's gotta be a habit defined by class right? All the "new money" folk coming from China bring their hometown etiquette with them. I'm in the airport right now and this guy is smacking his lips, slurping his noodles and gargling his soup. Maybe it's just some really high level foodie method of insta-aerating his food for max flavor enhancement.
