context_page_description: Cauliflower revolution is the name of the spontaneous Lithuanian protest started by a dweller of the southwestern Lithuanian town of Vilkaviskis in 2016. She has bought the cauliflower at Maxima supermarket in Vilkaviskis, paying 3.49€ for one head of cauliflower. She posted the photo on Facebook, and soon tens of thousands of Lithuanians shared the post, making it viral because of various talks on public earlier on rapidly rising prices and a subtle growth of salaries compared after the euro was introduced to Lithuania in 2015. A spontaneous three-day boycott occurred, between May 10 and 12, of all four main supermarket chains in Lithuania that control 80% of food distribution in the country, Maxima, Iki, Rimi, and Norfa.
