Does anyone know where I can buy AIOLI in Johannesburg?

You can make it yourself

I know , but I just wondered it anyone makes it here.

A company in the Cape used to make it, and I could buy jars of it at "Milly's" - a service station with a good deli shop between my home and Jo'burg - but they have stopped making it, so I am looking for another supplier.

Make your own, commercial stuff isn't a patch on the freshly made real thing.
 
I have similar problem. I adore Vegemite (Marmite also OK) but the company that used to import it has stopped importing it due to low selling numbers. Not enough expats over here.
And I don't want to try doing it by myself
 
Hey KinkyOne, got back in May from 2 weeks down under with Aussie friends. They rented a 6 person van and drove us (2 Seattle area couples) all over South East Australia, staying in VRBO homes all along the way. Graeme converted me to a regular "black and tan" for breakfast daily. Proper preparation is take a piece of toast and butter it to the edges, next, spread peanut butter over half of the toast, finally, spread a very thin layer of Vegemite over the other half, enjoy, repeat if necessary. Graeme convinced me that this was a well established Australian custom. A few days before we left, we met up with his daughter- who promptly told me with a huge smile, that "black and tans" were a creation of only her father, and no one else in Australia did that. In our travels, we even drove by the Vegemite factory!
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Obviously a different Black & Tan than the one that I was thinking of.
 
Ha, very amusing guys. I love both your black and tans – vegemite, stout, peanut butter and lager - (but not all at once ) – but – back to the OP – are there any South Africans out there who know where I can buy aioli (besides marmite , carling black label, peanut butter and castle )?
 
And if that doesn't work for you try a backup Australian breakfast, canned spaghetti on toast.

Huh, I don't have that much patience when it comes to Vegemite. I lick if off the tea spoon like ice cream

I even prepare some dishes with it. But otherwise I like it simple since I don't fancy white bread or toast.
