Sure, first off there are a few Answer Pet Foods. Answer Pet Food DETAILED is one that is complete and doesn't need any additional supplement and/or veggies. Answer Pet Food STRAIGHT is a diet you add additional supplements and/or veggies to - I think they only have Chicken and Beef and Pork formulas available at this time. The Answer Pet food DETAILED also comes in nibbles, patties or sausages if preferred.
You can read more about the ingredients in both at their website -

Aunt Jeni's is great. It's complete and balanced and one does not have to add any supplements. It also comes in a variety of flavors too including: chicken, lamb, beef, rabbit, turkey and goat.
One can also lightly cook Aunt Jeni's food - although feeding it raw is recommended, but for those that are "paranoid" or "afraid" it's a good alternative to slowly introduce one's dog and self to raw food. Aunt Jeni's has a lower meat ratio than Answers Pet food. The chicken, lamb, beef and rabbit varieties are made in a 65:35 ratio of meat, organs & bones to vegetables, eggs, & "extra" ingredients. Aunt Jeni's Turkey and Goat formulas are made in a 75:25 ratio of meat, organs & bones to vegetables, fruits and seeds/nuts.
Here's some facts from the website:
