Bai Lin Tea is a Chinese brand of tea, with reputed slimming properties, that was one of three sponsors to appear on Chelsea shirts during the 1986-87 season. The product was introduced to the UK by Australian businessman, and subsequent convicted fraudster, Peter Foster.[1] In marketing the tea, Foster employed prominent people such as model Samantha Fox (whom he was dating), jockey Lester Piggott and Sarah, Duchess of York to endorse the brand, in addition to securing a deal to feature on Chelsea's shirts. He was fined £21,000 in 1994 in the United Kingdom for a trading standards offence relating to the product.
