Good question. Come to think of it, when I randomize I'm almost always alone by myself. If I'm having dinner with a companion, I either try to decide on something quickly, or opt for some alternative way of taking the matter out of my hands: e.g. ask that companion (who is always someone more knowledgeable about food than I am) or the server to recommend a dish. For me the main purpose of randomizing is to take certain kinds of matters out of my hands (rather than say to maximize breadth of coverage), and an opinionated friend serves that purpose just as well as a dice, I guess!
