Container with a wall that is integrated with a cap having a plug that extends sufficiently through a weakened region of the container wall to prevent inadvertent rupture of the cap during shipment and handling of the container. Because of the extension of the plug, inadvertent movement of the cap produces only a rotation of the plug into contact with a side wall of the container that limits any further rotation and prevents inadvertent breakage of the plug and consequent loss of the container contents. The container and integral cap are desirably fabricated by injection molding with plastic materials.
