We typically eat to satiation, rather than consume constantly. In terms of lab animals, you see the former in rats, but mice will constantly nibble at their chow.

Most people do not stop eating at satiation. They eat beyond this, and often very much so. However, eating whenever you want and stopping when you are satiated is still ad libitum.
