It is not customary to leave a tip with takeout

A topic about Tip in restaurants seems to have caught fire. The flame is caused by the fact that the topic owner does not know that it is not customary in the U.S. to offer Tip when ordering TO GO, but it seems that people in the restaurant industry are taking advantage of this and are spreading false information in order to get Tip. It is normal in the U.S. not to pay Tip for TO GO, but it is also a reality that about 10% of Americans voluntarily pay a dollar or so.
If you look up Tip in TO GO on Google, you will see some Tip-hungry posts that seem to be from people in the restaurant industry. I will offer a common sense explanation that is not so. This information is mainly for tourists coming to the US from other English-speaking countries.
"For cafes or takeaway restaurants that do not offer table service, you are typically not obligated to leave a tip."
( For cafes or takeaway restaurants that do not offer table service, you are not typically obligated to leave a tip. )
"Buying food or drinks over the counter doesn't incur any gratuity but you can throw a dollar in the ever-present tip jar if you feel like it."
(Buying food or drinks over the counter doesn't incur any gratuity but you can throw a dollar in the ever-present tip jar if you care. )
"Tipping is not required for fast food restaurants, take-out orders, and coffee houses."
(Fast food restaurants, take-out orders and coffee houses do not require tipping. )
"A tip is for good service (someone bringing food drink to your table, keeping on top of your requests etc.) but with takeout You're buying a product.Its similar to going to McDonalds or Wendy's."

Tipping is not money that goes into the owner's pocket, so raising the price is irrelevant. In general, a bad restaurant that steals tips from employees and tells cheap customers not to come here will be finished if they raise prices.

In my case, I decide how much Tip to pay based on whether the store is popular or not.
I don't know if there is no culture of paying Tip or not, but with some stores going out of business due to the Corona disaster, I try to pay as much Tip as possible because I don't want the stores I frequent to go out of business as much as possible.
You may think I am too good-natured, but I personally believe that Tip is a service charge that is based on feelings.
( This is just my personal opinion. )
I bow down to the stores that are still open even in this Corona disaster.
Even if they are doing it to survive, I feel there is a big difference between being closed and not being able to use the restaurant and being able to use it just for take-out.
I pay a 20% Tip on my favorite stores, even ToGo, as a way to support the stores. Of course I am also in a very difficult financial situation, but I want to help the stores I want to help by giving Tip to the extent I can, and I want to help them by using them as much as I can, even though it is within my ability to do so.This text has been translated by auto-translation.
