I will often question/correct my wife when she speaks like this.
We are already in the kitchen, and she will say, "Go eat."  I tell her, "We are already here, the
food is here... why would I /GO/?"
Or, she is in the kitchen, standing next to the food, and tells the kids, "Go eat."  I tell her, it
would be /COME/, not /GO/.
(And English is her first language.)
