They also claimed that the mice ate the same amount of food, probably in an effort to prove that diet doesn't matter and calories aren't important and everything can be blamed on inexplicable altering metabolism or some otherworldly fuckery. Why do I get the sneaking suspicion that this study was conducted by a fat?

I must have skimmed over that line. What I imagine they mean is that the mice were fed the same. They were given the same amount of food, but chose to eat less or more of it with changes to their smell ability. I would say fats like to lie by omission, but that it far too subtle. They just openly lie because they are horrible people. My fat to human translator is getting pretty good, I think.

"Food intake was unchanged upon normal chow but was reduced in hyposmic mice upon HFD feeding"

They hurry past that admission as quickly as possible.
