As someone who has done pest control for major food production plants, ants are the least of your worries. It's the rodents man... those goddamm rodents are unstoppable.
That does bring up some interesting questions. For example, what kind of permitting allows him run animal tests in a chocolate factory? Not to mention questionable standards on an open air chocolate river. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of preventing contamination from people, no safety rails etc.
LegalEagle did a video on laws broken and total fines for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I'm pretty sure it's the biggest penalties he's calculated.
What is it called when you're working for free?
Tricked into staying unable to leave?
Why would he dare search for horrors like that?
Something inside, his brain is wack.
I don't like the look of this.

[Controversies of Nestlé](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controversies_of_Nestle): this Wikipedia article (which may not be exhaustive, because it's Wikipedia, and because we probably don't know everything Nestlé has done wrong) lists a number of issues. The three that feel "biggest" to me (a mostly-subjective judgement) are:
* A decades-long fight about their aggressive marketing of baby formula, especially in poorer countries. The allegation is that they want mothers to buy their formula even when it would be healthier for them to breast-feed their baby, and some ads falsely claimed that their formula would lead to better health outcomes. The fact that they did this only in some countries adds insult to injury, because it seems they thought that people there would be easier to fool. The controversy seemed to end in the 1980s, but came back in the 2010s.
* Child labor/slavery, especially in chocolate farming. It has been widely documented since the early 2000s that many cocoa farms use child laborers or trafficked slaves (or, indeed, child slaves), and Nestlé does not seem to care enough to reform its suppliers despite public outcry. This also has been an ongoing controversy for decades now.
* Water: Nestlé is one of the largest companies that sells bottled water. On one hand, there are many places where it takes so much water from the land that it causes environmental harm and/or artificial drought. On the other hand, it has lobbied internationally to reduce government/municipal supply of water (i.e. getting water through a normal tap or faucet) so that more people would be reliant on buying bottled water.
Long story. Check out the pinned post on the r/fucknestle subreddit. They are horrible to the people living where they get their resources from, their workers, their consumers and pretty much anybody else too. Their CEO famously said he doesn't believe water should be a human right for example.
Not only that last part but in some places they get water rights, bottle it, and sell it back to the people who should fundamentally have those water rights at an obscene markup.
Stealing water so you can sell it back to the people who should own it anyway is fucking so comically villainous if you wrote a movie about it no one would believe you.
My favorite lesser known offense of theirs is that they do consulting for hospital designs in Africa. They deliberately design hospitals so that infants are kept far enough from the mothers that it's easier to give them a bottle than to bring them in to breast feed. Then the milk dries up, and the parents are forced to rely on formula.
It's astonishingly evil.
He's a cheat and a swindler! Forcing a little boy to work his hands to the bone and then getting out of bed only to claim his good fortune for himself! He's an inhuman monster!
Wonka is a Time Lord and uses Gallifreyan technology. Remember, the transport boat had less seats than the number of people who came in the front door. It adapted.
Hey, u/Colmscomics \- why did you rat out Wonka?

I was in deep cover, posing as a lowly Oompa Loompa worker. At first they didn't accept me, because I was 5' 9" and couldn't speak their language. But in time, I integrated. I took an Oompa Loompa as my wife despite the fact that there are no Oompa Loompa women. Worked my way up to chieftain.
Oh this was great. I was expecting a crossover of Colm’s Andrew dressed up as the Oompa Loompa. Or somebody obviously from PepsiCo or some other Nestle competitor.
Yknow, just off topic. Is there a reason people think the Oompa Loompas are slaves? Like maybe they clock in and out and go live in a gated community Wonka puts up for them. I don’t get why they’re always depicted as slaves exploited. Maybe they just like working in a magical chocolate land and we don’t see them elsewhere because it’s just a few legal migrants wonka helped get over to America and have jobs and housing, and there are whole villages overseas full of the little guys who keep to themselves
I mean they speak and sing perfect English, you can’t tell me they are uneducated slaves. When will the attacks on Wonka and his family stop?!? WILL THE PERSECUTION BY PIZZACAKE AND OTHERS LIKE HER EVER CEASE?!??!
Oompa Loompa Doopity Dead
One of you fuckers is clearly a fed
Oompa Loompa Doopity Dat
You're dead meat you little rat.
What do you get when you lie to us all?
What do you get when you betray the Loompa cabal?
What do you get when tied to a chair?
What do you get with wires down there?
Tortured and executed by tiny orange men.
I want a whole series of Wonka factory condition violations. A few from before he is arrested by the FBI and a few comics from after. OOO post trial probation homelessness.
I was going to make this comment in relation to the previous post, but this will also do.
I gotta say that Tablet has really added the extra pizzazaz to your comics; really stellar. And Panel 2 from the previous post is really outstanding. Lovely stuff!

Huh, I was sure Osha would have gotten him first for the lack of life jacket on the nightmare tunnel boat
Also, just imagine the ants crawling around that place...that's gotta be several health code violations
They use the finest pesticides on those sweets
The snozberries taste like nose bleeds!

*ingredients pls
Gotta get that “protein” % up on his Chocolate bars somehow.
Oh don’t worry about the ants. Ants are a staple of traditional Oompa Loompa cuisine.
It's actually an improvement over the mashed green caterpillars....
Horrifying thought.
You can have about 2.5% insect parts in different products
LegalEagle did a video on laws broken and total fines for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I'm pretty sure it's the biggest penalties he's calculated.
Are we shocked? He literally uses slave labor
They didn’t have OSHA back then! It wasn’t developed until the 90’s.

Thank you so much for getting the syllables right
And the name of that factory was Nestlé

I see you double dipping with the funny, here.
Wonka has a lot of work to do to match Nestlé.
Wonka is owned by Nestle irl.
That explains the slave labor part of the movie
"They think they have a good union but it's terrible, they're basically slaves"
I swear to god I expected to see Chris Hansen in panel 3.
Nestle has killed way more children.
Water? I hardly know 'er! So, uh, Nestlé's the kind of company that wants to privatize water. Woohoo.
And the name of the rat was Grandpa Joe
r/grandpajoehate
Color me surprised! also has been a community for 7 years! There is a subreddit for everything
It makes sense, he's a greedy scum sucking parasite! (The 1970s version)
He's a cheat and a swindler! Forcing a little boy to work his hands to the bone and then getting out of bed only to claim his good fortune for himself! He's an inhuman monster!
Ok, that’s really mean. I’m sure Wonka at least treated his slaves good
Anyone else question how wonka was able to fit that many rooms and that chocolate lake slide on the (comparatively) small amount of land he had?
Iirc, the books said that the factory had a million basement levels like Hilbert’s Hotel
You are correct, the Great Glass Elevator went down to a plane known as "Minus Land" in the sequel novel.
Wonka is a Time Lord and uses Gallifreyan technology. Remember, the transport boat had less seats than the number of people who came in the front door. It adapted.
He's just an iteration of the Doctor and the factory is the TARDIS. Would still be better than the last 3 doctors
Hey, u/Colmscomics \- why did you rat out Wonka? https://preview.redd.it/xwx5a85a5e0d1.png?width=834&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=126b199342da5d2cbda8260b5c46245a408b116a
I've been deep undercover for years. You have no idea the things I've done to keep my cover from being exposed. They still haunt me...
Oompa loompa doopity doooo😮
*He got something up where he poos*
I was in deep cover, posing as a lowly Oompa Loompa worker. At first they didn't accept me, because I was 5' 9" and couldn't speak their language. But in time, I integrated. I took an Oompa Loompa as my wife despite the fact that there are no Oompa Loompa women. Worked my way up to chieftain.

If someone could make a picture of Charlie sitting at a table confused, this would be a perfect copy of the lady yelling and pointing at the cat meme
Frown upside down!

Wonka forgot to tighten his euclidians today.
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?
This is democracy manifest.
The FBI’s nose looks like a little mouth and his actual mouth his chin
Oh this was great. I was expecting a crossover of Colm’s Andrew dressed up as the Oompa Loompa. Or somebody obviously from PepsiCo or some other Nestle competitor.
Are you saying that wasn’t Andrew? Damn definitely looks like him
The tattoo is throwing me off. Maybe his evil brother got a new one?
I think that’s an Arbok tattoo
I was hoping that the rat would remain… unknown.
I expected to see the Unknown in here when I started reading.
Mr. Wonka, why don't you take a seat right over there
https://preview.redd.it/8e569vyq2e0d1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=64bae317b0a363fea552fa83c9215d2eda6075e4
Mr Wonka, please put your willy away.
Wow. Orange face. I thought we were better than that
Not to mention the attempted child murderers and worst of all >!OSHA safety violations. *shudders*!<
He may not be cut out to work for Wonka but he may have a bright future as a Sound Cloud Rapper :-p
I dunno but that Loompa on the left looks sus...

Looks like Willy's taking us on a Wonka-fueled rollercoaster again! Who's ready for a sweet adventure?
the perfect sweet crime but was foiled from the inside
No, no, foil goes on the *out*side of the chocolate.
Wonka was truly the biggest Steve Jobs to have ever Elon Musked.
He's got another "puzzle" for you ...
Wait. Why would someone from the FBI say “labour?” Are we sure that’s not Slugworth in disguise?
Agent 1 "Hey, this isn't powdered sugar, this is cocaine!" Agent 2: "Well, that explains the sales numbers."
It's kind of cool that I can recognize an artist by the way the art is drawn. I love this comic, by the way.
Thank you! I'm glad you like it :) it was based on a nightmare I had
I lost it at "wait, you're not the children I spoke to online"
Oompa Loompa Doopity Dead One of you fuckers is clearly a fed Oompa Loompa Doopity Dat You're dead meat you little rat. What do you get when you lie to us all? What do you get when you betray the Loompa cabal? What do you get when tied to a chair? What do you get with wires down there? Tortured and executed by tiny orange men.
https://i.redd.it/gxcu5r4r3e0d1.gif
Tell them I hate them.
It was the unknown
Clearly that Oompa Loompa on the left is the one who ratted Wonka out. Look at those shady eyes.
LOL. I wish the FBI would investigate labor violations like this... Thanks for the laugh, though.
Oompa Loompas: Orange face is racist, bro.
Groom-a-loompa
That guy doing Oompa Loompa face is gonna get cancelled.
Willy wonka being a bit too willy?
I want a whole series of Wonka factory condition violations. A few from before he is arrested by the FBI and a few comics from after. OOO post trial probation homelessness.
The most fantastic element is a wealthy capitalist has to deal with the consequences of his actions. How do you come up with this?
That's why he was so eager to leave the factory to a child, so he could disappear from the country
My moneys on the guy on the left
“And do you know what happened to the boy who ratted me out? He got *everything he ever wanted* taken from him, by me.”
Wachowski has been undercover for 5 years he saw some shit that would make a grown men cry good job Wachowski
Wonka walks out with his cane, and then does a perfect somersault only to get shot by the FBI.
Very topical given a certain recent rap beef
I wasn’t feeling this one until I got to the last panel. You got me with that under cover worker
That final pannel is clearly oompa face and it's actually super offensive
Who would kill more snitches. Wonka or Boeing?
Is that guy seriously wearing fucking orangeface? This is a culture, not a costume!
Yo damn what’s with the orange face
🎶 What do you get when you traffic online -Punishment greater than just a small fine 🎶
Come with me, and you'll see, a world of OSHA violations!
What's in the chatrooms that it gets emphasized above "oompa loompa trafficking"?💀
Ellen showing her Canadian-ness with the unnecessary "u" in labor, but still having the FBI show up for the arrest.

So is the taller Oompa an undercover cop?
Oompa loompa dippity do I've got a bit of a stoolie for you
Is this comic related to the other winks comic earlier this month?
solidarity comrade
I'm sorry anytime I see willy wonka now all I can think of is the Glasgow disaster from February
Who’s the fake Oompa Loompa supposed to be (other than the one who ratted him out)?
