Technically the construction in English is correct, the first noun is relavent to the qualifying clause. Could be phrased better though.Ok, so I appreciate that this is a serious story, but let’s be honest… editorial standards are pretty much non-existent these days

Option 2: Let’s eat, grandma.

Reminds me of a friend who is a school principal.
Was at a function and introduced her to someone new. The conversation went like this:
Other person: “what do you do?”
Principal: “I’m a principal”.
Other person: “Whereabouts?”
Principal: “Iona Primary School.”
With a look of surprise the other person then said “oh wow, which one?”
My principal friend has to spell out I-o-n-a.
