Not sure how, considering all types of food are renewable in some form or another.

But wait....

Umm. I've heard we could be running out of water. But never have I heard we are running out of food.

no.  We can eat meat from animals, and there is stuff that is grown.  And about water.. we're not running out of water.  There is the same amount of water on this earth right now that there was from the beginning of time.

As far as water, pretty much the treatment plants are refurbishing the waste water to make it drinkable for us. :|

Yes really cant run out seeing how we have systems like crops and live stock that can produce as much as we eat and regrow. That plus the amount of fish in the seas, and wild animals. It would be a very very long time until we are even close to worrying about running out of food.

Impossible. We'll never run out of food... given no global natural disasters happen. As long as there's too many people to feed, people will die of starvation, and that population control will mean the fed will stay fed and the hungry will die off. ^_^

Not really, there are tons, that we could still live off of.

I read somewhere that the world has/is capable of producing the amount of food necessary to adequately feed twice the world's population. It's all about unequal distribution of wealth.

at this point we are not even remotely close to running out of food.  when people mention overfishing, that typically (or always) means a certain species.  don't disregard the potentially millions of other species that are food-fitting.  we are gonna be ok.  this is similar to the overpopulation argument.
