I can't find it. What is licking your fingers after eating is called?
I'm not asking if it's rude/social acceptable, I'm asking what the action is called?
I'm not asking if it's called cleaning, there's a name for specifically licking your food stained fingers, I can't remember what it was.

Said about something being so delicious as to make you want to even lick your fingers that touched what you have eaten is finger-licking good. The equivalent adjectives might be toothsome, mouthwatering, lip-smacking.
