Answer:

2. encourages others to share when you need it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Food sharing has long been known as an important factor in many processes in various cultures, such as ceremonies, rituals, kin selections, etc.

But underneath all those processes what is most important is reciprocity and the fact that by sharing food, the giver ensures that the other side will return the favor eventually, especially in the time of need.

The person who shared doesn't have to be consciously aware of that and to share just for the benefit, but this reciprocity subliminal benefit of every food sharing.
