In the paper, they state that they did daily measurements of chow and sugar drink intake. So the intake was mostly unregulated, but it was measured.

My bad, turns out I was completely wrong:

> There was no overall difference in total caloric intake (sugar plus chow) among the sucrose group and two HFCS groups.

Technically, I was right in that they didn't control overall intake, but they did prove that they didn't need to control overall intake so my alternative hypothesis was refuted in any case.
