*2.3. Energy Deprivation-Induced Intake of Individually Presented GM and CM in Mice and Rats*

Mice and rats previously exposed in their homecages to GM, CM, cornstarch, and sucrose were deprived of standard chow overnight (food taken away at 16:00). On the next day (10:00), water bottles were removed and replaced with bottles (at room temperature) containing one of the four treatments (mice: *n* = 8–10/group; rats: 7–8/group). Spillage (g) from each individual bottle was recorded before placement into cage. Intakes were measured using a digital scale after 2 h and expressed in grams per gram of body weight. This feeding experiment was conducted in a separate cohort of animals.
