Are you asking about the emoticon >> :P << which looks like a person sticking out their tongue when viewed on its side? I think this gesture (the tongue sticking out) usually means that the taste is bad. Children stick their tongues out if you offer them something they don't want to eat. So it is not impolite, but it is childish. It is probably fine if the relationship is casual and you are chatting online.

"Do u like pizza? It's so yummy :P"

it's a 'friendly' Icon actually, not an expression. it's usually seen or used in a casual chat that is not so impolite.
but I always use this Icon... :)
