In ceramics the final glaze would be the issue if any. Some glazes are made with a high lead content and here they are marked for non-food items only.There's a couple of dozen posts on Facebook going around now about the fear that slow cookers are giving us all lead poison. OMG OMG OMG OMG!!! Apparently according to the click bait, the lead seeps out of the ceramic pot during those long cooks. You can buy test tools from hardware stores and someone has. Showed no lead at all.
Doubtless, this aluminum thing will go away again.
