Well he doesn't matter much to her. Her android body doesn't metabolize chemicals the same way as non-robots. And frankly I am in a crisis situation on whether or not androids need to eat or not.Assuming they're built to be so much like humans they literally bleed like humans I would think they need calories at least to keep some minor systems functional.And there are a bunch of otherwise benign or inert chemicals that are processed into hard chems anyways. Fruit left to ferment turns into alcohol. The active ingredient in cold medicine can be made into meth. And so one and so on. And given the apparent absence of regulation as exists in this reality I imagine many processed foods are already made with ingredients that can be broken down and turned into Jet or Psycho.

Jet is actually fermented Brahmin dung collected from Brahmin exposed to a particular prewar protein extract compound, and Psycho is actually a military designer drug. So both, ironically, are the hardest drugs to make due to the rarity of their ingredients (you still have the option of making them at chem stations in New Vegas, but those are one-time deals and in-game both are impossible to craft otherwise, so I surmise the primary limitation is ingredient rarity) - once you have either, you can use them to make a whole splash of other things like Turbo or Slasher or Rocket, and those use daily household items. Mostly Turpentine, Abraxo Cleaner, and Laundry Detergent. Sugar Bombs have a hilarious trend of being used in or containing the same active ingredients as the most volatile and dangerous substances in the Fallout universe short of FEV. They increase your AP upon consumption, which is an effect shared with several hard drugs, they can be combined with the 'mostly harmless' radioactive isotope in Nuka Cola Victory, Quartz, or Quantum to get a bit of a bang, and of course Sugar Bombs are in fact the primary and active ingredient in flamer fuel.

Sugar Bombs are the shit. '-'
