Yes, in a way. There were actually many causes, food shortages being one of many. People were dissatisfied with the economy, the distribution of land, the casualties in the army in World War I, the dislike of both Nicholas and Alexandra, the influence of the Orthodox Church and other things.

But the February Revolution was touched off by a group of women who began complaining about having to wait in line for hours in the cold for bread and maybe not even getting any despite waiting. From there many other people, factory workers and soldiers too joined in the demonstrations which soon grew large and out of control and spread to other cities as well.
