100-year-old Jasso loves her Crix, so Bermudez makes a home delivery

LAST month, 100-year-old Jasso Sookram told us the health benefits of her favourite food - Crix crackers.
On Monday, the Bermudez Biscuit Company paid her a visit.
Jasso lives of Mount Stewart Village, Princes Town.
According to granddaughter Gloria Sinanan, one of her favourite thing to eat is Crix and she would always tell her relatives to “eat Crix so you wouldn’t get wind.”
Managing Director at Bermudez, Ingrid Lloyd read the story and contacted the Express, hoping to provide a hamper on Jasso’s milestone birthday.
A Company representative visited her home. Sinanan said Jasso was thrilled to be presented with the products. She said: “She was so happy. She spoke with the young man who came and told him about her life and how hard she worked. He was very nice to her calling her ‘darling’ and she wished him well before he left. He also wished her many more years. This is a wonderful thing and I really want to thank them for this.”
​Jasso worked as a cane farmer on the Caroni Estate and to date, does not suffer from any ailments.
She is a devout Hindu and attributes her long life to living well with others and her dedication to God. Her life’s philosophy is to work hard and live peacefully with everyone
