Is that uranium glass?

You guessed it.

Hopefully there's still enough rads to keep stuff like salmonella out of the food

Ironically, it's not the radiation that makes uranium dangerous here. Uranium is a heavy metal, and toxic in its own right. Enough can transfer to the food to give heavy metal poisoning, akin to eating off of plates with lead paint.

Whoa, that's one unexpected silver lining.
