OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A Nebraska woman has filed a false advertising lawsuit against ConAgra Foods, accusing the packaged food company of intentionally misrepresenting its Parkay Spray butter substitute as fat-free and calorie-free.

The lawsuit filed by Pamela Trewhitt, of Gretna, Monday in Omaha’s federal court seeks class-action status to represent thousands of people it says have been deceived by the company’s product labeling.
