Maybe the problem is trying to assign utility to “eat strawberries” rather than to the whole timeless state “ate strawberries Tuesday, blueberries Wednesday, bananas Thursday” etc.
We do seem to run into some weird problems if we say that the marginal utility of strawberries declines each time you eat a strawberry… though maybe we could say that this is true, everything else held constant or something like that.
