we could observe our future self eating something then go back to your own present time a few minutes later and
chances are would we or would we not eat the same thing or do the same action.
Really though, if time travel to the future and back were possible, then there would be no free will. If you can travel into the future, that would make the present the future's past and already a done deal in which we would be nothing more than a shadow acting out history. The dinner has already been eaten and nothing could change that.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
