    I'd switch them both to the same food to avoid tummy problems.

    Start of slow by mixing the new food in with their current food.

    Good luck.

    Make sure they are getting the right amount of food too. I would do what Alty says and switch to one brand for them both but also if they continue to swap bowls separate them during meal times. One dog may eat faster than the other and if they start eating out of one bowl then switch you don't want one to be getting 1 1/2 meals worth while the other one only gets 1/2 :)
