You’ve addressed this in the past, but I couldn’t find the post. Why are “enzymes” in cheese ingredients not an issue?

Is the teshuva from the OU publicly available? I would be interested in reading it
We would only approve those that are not from animals.
Ask if vegetarian.
So does that mean that if a packaged cheese only contains vegetarian enzymes, it does not need a hechsher? For example, would these cheeses be ok to eat even though they do not have a hechsher?
1. Organic valley muenster cheese slices – Organic Cultured Pasteurized Milk, Salt, Vegetarian Enzymes, Organic Annatto.
2. Organic valley stringles – Organic cultured pasteurized part skim milk, salt, vegetarian enzyme.
3. Organic valley cheddar- Organic Cultured Pasteurized Milk, Salt, Microbial Enzymes.
Thank you!
