Grandma can randomly show up in space whenever you grav jump to a new system, and she’ll invite you over for some food. When you speak to her, you’ll learn that she’s actually a perfectly normal and benevolent NPC who just finds pleasure in roaming around space, seeking out her own adventures while helping out other travelers she comes across. She’ll tell you a little bit about her kids and her family background, then offer you some food.

The nice thing about Grandma’s ship is that it’s usually stocked to the brim with cooked and prepared meals, which will heal you for a lot more health than random ingredients or packaged food you find in the open-world. She also has ingredients that you can pick up if you have the Gastronomy skill, allowing you to prepare more elaborate meals.
