Smoke or gas let off by a melted plastic spoon is toxic and should be avoided. The cooled plastic can be disposed of in the trash in a normal way.

Is melted plastic bad?

Melted plastic is generally non-toxic and usually a pain to remove. It is generally disposed of as trash, as it cannot really be re-used. If it's hot, it is hazardous as it can burn you and tends to stick to skin and materials. In that light, it is dangerous. Melted plastic is the material used in injection molding. That melted plastic is not "bad" as it is being used for a purpose (the manufacture of goods).

Why plastic is both a boon and a curse?

A plastic spoon is a boon if you are eating ice-cream during a picnic. But, a curse if the spoon snaps and is chucked into a waste basket. Eventually, the broken spoon will end up in a landfill site, where it will take many decades to rot down, if ever!
