thread_title:  Template 

message: The article lacks info on the company's history. The Wonka brand was owned by Sunmark in the '80s and was indeed sold to Nestle. There is no article for the Sunmark Capital Corp. so maybe someone could add something about it here?
My grandfather was the president of Sunmark and he got the idea for SweeTarts while touring a Tums factory and saw how they compressed powdered medicine into tablet form. He applied the technology to powdered sugar to produce a variety of candies including Spree.

I agree the page needs more history but the current history needs fact checking. The nestle website states that the Wonka Brand was started in 1983... that date does not match any dates currently on the page nor the date located in the reference website page used for this article. Are these dates made up? 65.175.222.116 (talk) 00:51, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

:Yes. That is because answers.com uses wikipedia content under GFDL, as they correctly state at the bottom of the page. 82.32.65.149 23:19, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm told that PixyStix and maybe a couple other product (SweeTarts, BottleCaps) lines predate 1971. Probably they were existing products of Breaker or another company. knoodelhed 16:45, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Was reviewing the articles for the candies that are developed and discontinued by Wonka, and it seems that none of them alone have very concrete articles... Perhaps it might be easier to merge them all into this article and build on it from there?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.97.240.223 (talk) 00:32, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

message: Why aren't they in the box. I haven't seen them in years, so probably in the discontinued section. I loved these things, wish I could still find them.76.226.117.250 (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 22:54, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

message: for some reason most Wonka products seem to be missing the Wonka logo recently. I hope it isn't a bad omen... Visokor (talk) 06:06, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: they seem to have phased out the brand, in the US anyway, I couldn't say for other countries. Wild guess, not worth it to nestle to keep paying for the license. In any event, the article needs to have some revisions to account for the lack of Wonka branding.68.51.193.141 (talk) 23:45, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  strange... 

message: Why does the article start out describing this as a "british brand"?  There seems to be as much or more evidence in the article that it is an american brand, or a swiss brand if you count is as part of Nestle.

message: Is it just me or is the statement about the Wonka logo/company closing around 2015 not supported by citation 3?  I'm not a normal Wikipedia user so someone else should probably evaluate the claim and see if it needs verification.  Thank you! 174.34.213.170 (talk) 05:40, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
