+Days 1-8 (04/30/2021-05/07/2021) Food/water restriction and training: Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (N=16) were trained on a restricted food and water schedule for 8 days before conditioning. Each day at 1pm, the animals were weighed and given 23-25 grams of chow to maintain 90% body weight. After being weighed, animals were given access to two bottles, 0.05% saccharin and water. Initially, they were given 1hr to drink the solutions, and this was gradually reduced to 30 mins per day. Bottle positions were alternated each day.
