you can fix it by switching metering modes.. or at least it will be a contributing factor

which metering mode did you use?
Actually, I'm thinking it might have been matrix metering, assuming that is black velvet or something under the basket (and not a product of PP). If so, the dark is much more prominent that the white, and the camera might be exposing for that. You could dial in negative exposure compensation and look at the histogram or the highlight blinkies as a guide.
