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 - Answers Raw Pet Food Company: Our Products

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:
