Some ceramic tiles are made from clays that might contain lead and are not food safe. Usually quarry tiles are OK, check the label - it should say lead-free unglazed tiles. If unsure contact the manufacturer of the tile. While getting unglazed tile is a must, it doesn’t necessariyl guarantee lead free tiles.

Glaze may contain lead. Lead in your food and food handling implements can cause problems for you. No glaze = no lead = no lead problems. Unglazed (quarry tiles) is the most important word here.

I realize that a thin stone is not supposed to retain as much heat as a thick one, but I just purchased a Wisco pizza oven and a thick stone or tile is too heavy for my slide out tray on which I put my pizza.

And that is where they stay, even when I am not making pizza. They don't effect the oven's performance and are great for reheating bread or pastries.
