         2 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the plastisol is BPA-free. 
     
     
         3 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the plastisol is phthalate-free. 
     
     
         4 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the plastisol is sanctioned for contact with food. 
     
     
         5 . The glass bottle of  claim 1  wherein the circumference of the base is substantially similar to the circumference of the threaded connecting end. 
     
     
         6 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the base comprises an interior surface and an exterior surface. 
     
     
         7 . The shatter resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the cylindrical wall comprises an interior surface and an exterior surface. 
     
     
         8 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the top end comprises an interior surface and an exterior surface. 
     
     
         9 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the connecting end comprises an interior surface and an exterior surface. 
     
     
         10 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the dispensing end further comprises a cap. 
     
     
         11 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 8 , wherein the lid is configured for reversible engagement with the dispensing end. 
     
     
         12 . A shatter-resistant glass beverage bottle comprising:
 a glass body comprising a base, a cylindrical wall, and a top end;   a glass lid comprising a connecting end, wherein the width of the connecting end is commensurate in width with the top end;   a dispensing end; and   a safety-coating comprising a plastisol.   
     
     
         13 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 12 , wherein the plastisol is sanctioned for contact with food. 
     
     
         14 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 12 , wherein the top end is wide-mouthed. 
     
     
         15 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 12 , wherein the connecting end is threaded. 
     
     
         16 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 12 , wherein the top end comprises grooves configured to permit complementary attachment to a threaded connecting end. 
     
     
         17 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 12 , wherein the bottle is configured to attach the connecting end to the top end by means other than threads and complementary grooves. 
     
     
         18 . The shatter-resistant glass bottle of  claim 12 , wherein the safety coating is applied to at least one portion of an exterior surface of the glass body.
