Why am I only getting two PEZ, when I should have gotten six? 

    dispenser.fill(4);
    dispenser.fill(2);
    while (dispenser.dispense()) {
      System.out.println("Chomp!!");
    }

What does your dispenser fill method look like? When you call the fill method if the param added to the pez count or set to the pez count. When you call fill the pez count should increase by the amount param.

public void fill(int pezAmount) {
    pezCount += pezAmount;
}

If you are not getting chomp to print out 6 times it might be because your method looks like this.

public void fill(int pezAmount) {
    pezCount = pezAmount;
}
