Could Consuming Melted Plastic In Pizza Effect Health?

I accidentally left the plastic wrap on a microwavable pizza. I took it off when I took it out of the microwave, but I didn't think anything of it until I realized there was a little melted plastic still on the pizza while I was eating it. Should I be worried?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

If you have already eaten the pizza then please do not worry about it but be careful not to do it again. If you feel that there is a bit of plastic in the pizza which has melted and got stuck to the crust the please discard that portion and you can have the rest of it.
I find this answer helpful
