What could cause a loud popping in the center of the back of the neck as i open my mouth to eat?

TMJoint clicks: More than likely you are hearing clicks in your jaw joint(s). See a dentist who has extensive experience in treating patients with tmd\tmjoint issues for an evaluation and conservative treatment.
