The point is that it will take food away from humans only if we go 100% biofuel. I don't think that is a realistic goal in the near future. Currently the effect on the worlds food source is nothing.

You may be able to argue that is is small, but to say it is "nothing" is simply false. The Washington Post article I linked to said it was one of the top 5 reasons why grain prices have increased.
