    I always read “togo” as the African country first, not as “to go”.

      Wait is this a thing? Do Americans legitimately call it “togo”? I came in here to find out what sort of food togo was.

        No, we do not. We do say “to go” however. OP probably accidentally missed a space.

            It’s weird how culturally ubiquitous some common smartphone typos become

        No. Normal people write “to go”.

        british ex pat in America. I have said “to take away” and been met with blank looks, until I corrected to “to go”

          I think “take away” is valid too. “To take away” just sounds odd.

          I believe the yelp app uses take out, which sounds right.
