Dude

It's Oompa-Loompa and they live in Loompaland, not Vesta

?Then you?ll know all about it,? said Mr Wonka. ?And oh, what a terrible
country it is! Nothing but thick jungles infested by the most dangerous
beasts in the world ? hornswogglers and snozzwangers and those terrible
wicked whangdoodles. A whangdoodle would eat ten Oompa-Loompas for breakfast
and come galloping back for a second helping. When I went out there, I found
the little Oompa-Loompas living in tree houses. They had to live in tree
houses to escape from the whangdoodles and the hornswogglers and the
snozzwangers. And they were living on green caterpillars, and the
caterpillars tasted revolting, and the Oompa-Loompas spent every moment of
their days climbing through the treetops looking for other things to mash up
with the caterpillars to make them taste better ? red beetles, for instance,
and eucalyptus leaves, and the bark of the bong-bong tree, all of them
beastly, but not quite so beastly as the caterpillars. Poor little
Oompa-Loompas! The one food that they longed for more than any other was the
cacao bean. But they couldn?t get it. An Oompa-Loompa was lucky if he found
three or four cacao beans a year. But oh, how they craved them. They used to
dream about cacao beans all night and talk about them all day. You had only
to mention the word ?cacao? to an Oompa-Loompa and he would start dribbling
at the mouth. .'
