A feed and drink bottle is made of plastics material preferably by an asepti c process. In its basic form the bottle (2) has a mouth (4) intended to be sealed with a closure (10) put in place after the feed has been put in the bottle through its mouth. The bottle is rendered unfit for re-use as a baby' s bottle, thus making it disposable either by preventing the closure from bein g able to be removed from the body of the bottle once it has reached its fully engaged position, or by preventing it from being replaced in a fluid tight position once it has been removed. The closure (10) has a teat (24) secured to it in an irremovable manner, as by the teat being clamped between the closur e and a retainer member (18) held in place in the closure, or by the teat's being bonded to the closure. When the closure and teat are formed as a singl e unit, the unit may be used more than once on a body (2) of aseptic plastics material, thus putting back on the user the responsibility of ensuring that the body is sterile or aseptic before such re-use.
