United Nations, New York, 24 January 2010 - United Nations (UN) peacekeepers from Brazil along with the US (United States) Army distributed food today (24 Jan) in Cité Soleil, one of the poorest and most troubled neighborhoods in Port-au-Prince.

The partnership between American and UN forces strengthens the ability to secure an area while contributing to humanitarian aid on the ground.

Locals formed cues to receive food packs, water and crackers. Bags of rice, beans, corn flour and plaster were also being distributed.

UN Force Commander Major General Floriano Peixoto was optimistic that the arrival of new troops would enhance the capacity to distribute aid.

SOUNDBITE (English) Major General Floriano Peixoto, Force Commander, United Nations:
“We believe that the troops that arrive will enhance our capacity of distributing food, enhance our capacity to provide logistics, and support along with our partners the Americans and the Canadians, and other contributors that are arriving.”

There have been reports about delays in aid distribution by the media as well as survivors complaining that it has been nearly two weeks since the earthquake struck and they still had not received any food or water.
General P.K. Keen who was in Haiti when the earthquake struck said aid distribution was improving daily.

There is a Brazilian food which is like melted chocolate fudge and other ingredients, but I don’t know what is the name of it. It’s a very thick cream.
To Moon,
I found one that looks like it the most in the first link you provided. It’s the fourth one:
http://patisseriereport.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/brigadeiro-003-p48.jpg

So far I only know what Brigadeiro looks like because an answerer has provided pictures. (= Thank you! =)

I also want to add more clues to this dessert:
There is a layer of frosting on the top, and the person who brought this food said that it is considered a comfort food in Brazil.
Oh, for the frosting, I don’t know if it is created by the chillness of the air or not, because that’s the reaction of the frosting on cupcakes when it is chilled.
To Moon,
I’ve tried it - tasted it - I mean, but I haven’t made it myself yet. We had a culture day last week, and everybody brought in something from their countries. A Brazilian brought this but I can’t remember what the name is. Oh, it was so good, but the person who brought it agreed with my teacher that it’s high in calories. =P

Brigadeiro.

Here’s the recipe for you:

And a video that teaches how to make it:

Hope you enjoy it!!

Good luck!! :)

Edit: I believe, by the picture at your link, that it is the same thing. A lot of people like to prepare this and eat it with a spoon (yes, it’s a typical "comfort food"). The little balls are made for parties only, especially for childrens’ parties. Who likes to eat this at home don’t bother preparing the litle balls, just prepare the chocolate mixture and eat it out of the pan :)

Try it (have you already/ever?), and see if it is what you’re looking for (it’s easy and quick to make). I will ask some friends and family members if they can think of something else, but i’m pretty sure that it’s this, the same sweet, just in a different form.
