I forgot which one, but there's a brand that does have a list of ingredients and is more 'acceptable' than others.
However, such commercial food is usually an "emergency only" thing or to be added with real fresh vegetables, or can be handy when traveling with the animal.

Anyways, stick with the fresh stuff.
