For what it's worth, fuselage failure on contact with the water makes more sense to me too. I'd have expected more impact damage to the galley if it was ejected in an in-flight breakup and hit the water in free fall. Maybe someone with real knowledge will explain that it's strong and light enough to survive such an event undamaged, but that doesn't seem too likely on its face.
