Comments left:	I loved Oompahs as well. They came out in the mid '80's. And, as most have noted, they were great. But Wonka got out of the Chocolate business and they were discontinued. I contacted the company and they wrote back informing me of this. They included a $2 off coupon for their candy in their letter. It was a "Golden Ticket" like they had in the original movie. It looked so neat, I never actually used it. Wonka then came out with the fruit candy/Skittles product and recycled the name (I never cared much for these). Apparently, "Oompahs" is a bad luck name because it also got discontinued after a relatively short time. Now, Wonka has gotten back into the chocolate market recently, so maybe they will resurrect the original Oompah's, perhaps under a different name. (I have no inside information, I'm just speculating).
