Dang, I need one of those things for hauling pumpkins.
 
Maybe they'd have a radioactive glow, so no need for internal lighting!

Nah I kid. But I don't use them for eating so I'm not too concerned. I doubt the lead from paint can get to the seeds.
 
I'm just joking around. But wouldn't radioactive pumpkins be cool anyway?
