Not just them, but we mostly have a choice. Somewhat.
It's the nature of consumerism. Everything quickly turns into garbage. Planned obsolescence, and the urgent need to sell shit over and over again, to make the wheels of economy turn. There are some regulations, standards, here and there, but I doubt China has much in place, I bet they can "feed" anything to their own population, whom given money to serve as market to the big firms. They promptly trade in their money in return for stuff that becomes garbage very soon.

It's related to the previous. Without regulations, without consideration of human life, but being profit oriented products can be potentially made from dangerous, poisonous, carcinogen, etc. materials. I remember some smaller scandal when imported Chinese toys were such. The pacifier is a bit stretch from here, but I doubt they had any qualms to produce them similarly.
Also if they don't give a shit about human life, they would experiment with whatever on the general population without any second thoughts as well. Since we're here in EU, we are somewhat protected, but the Chinese people aren't.
