Every company is in the business of making money, of course, they are not in the business of keeping everybody "healthy" or "safe"....now what is Husi, an Illinois, company branching out into China? They, as many other food processing companies, figured out that outside the US, food regulation is not that tight. So they've probably been shipping past due ingredients to overseas business partners. So, basically, is not just the cheap labor these companies are looking for overseas, they are also looking for places where to discard their "waste" and make a profit while doing so.

An apology to customers is posted at a McDonalds fastfood restaurant after Chinese regulators shut the meat supplier, Shanghai Husi Food Co., of McDonalds, in Shanghai, China, 22 July 2014.
