Water Diet - Please help

For the next week, I will be floating in my pool and only consuming the food items that can be drifted over to me.

I think most fruits and vegetables will work, and meat is pretty buoyant: it'll float just under the surface as long as its not overcooked.

Icecream, of course, would form miniature butter-pecan ice burgs.

My challenge is cake. Do you think it'll be ok if it gets completely sealed in fondant, or do you think it'll get too soggy to eat regardless?

    Angel food cake sealed in fondant might be okay. The ring itself would make a fun underwater toy!

    Beer of course! And maybe a sandwich in a Ziploc bag so it doesn't sink or get soggy.

    Why don't you get one of those floating trays and bars?

    I think having food encased in a container is cheating. If I did that, I could just munch on floating bags of Doritos all day and there wouldn't be much point in this diet, would there???

    Actually, you could make a fondant boat, and then pretty much anything could be floated to you. And, those Scoopables Tostitos would probably float bite-sized snickers. This will work! I'm going out tomorrow and buying a pool!

    The water in the pool has chlorine in it. Is it still water?

    That is a great point. Do you think it would be better to fill the pool with beer?

    Yes, I really think you should do that!

    The one thing that concerns me is the Norse king, Fjölnir, who drowned in a vat of mead. Do you think that his death indicates that beer has toxins?

    ETA: and would the alcohol content affect the buoyancy of my diet?

    EETA: Also, would it still be a "water" diet?

    Don't do the snickers! If they break away they will look like little floaties of something else! That could ruin your appetite.
