I HATE sending internal trade routes; especially to my capital which already has good food and hammers. I don't understand why people do it.
I always try to get cargo ships and send it externally to the city with the highest gold OR a quest for a city state. It was my view that the science return really is pennies on the dollar, and trade is for gold.

Yes, master.this is strategy and tips selection.
No1 cares about which way you have fun. And honestly i dont think u should try to give tips to other in which way they can have fun. This leads to nowhere.
It kind of depends. If you're going for Culture/Diplo you'd want to send it out for more gold and early beakers, so that you can at least try and be competitive with cultural wonders and/or city states. Same can be applied if you're going full warmonger, but not as much because once you finish Might, you gain gold for every kill.
If you're going for a peaceful SV, you'd want growth and more growth, if you can get to Universities reasonably fast, and remain on pace to get Porcelain Tower and later on, schools and stuff, all you basically need is enough pop so you can keep growing while slotting specialists in all cities and working on GSs. A slower start here is not as important because you will overtake everyone before Modern Era and nobody can catch up you anymore
The first half of my post is for internal routes
The tradition approach is usually 3 cargo ships from non capital cities being run to the capital. Initally all food, ...
The liberty approach is usually running a cargo ship to a recently founded city just til it expires,
this is strategy and tips selection.

It's a law of diminishing returns. The more food you have, the less value 1 food is.
