Thousands of protesters on foot and in vehicles converged Wednesday...

Not cool.

Rogue soft-serve ice cream trucks are flouting a recommended freeze by their corporate parent by continuing to peddle cones in Brooklyn amid the coronavirus lockdown.

Mister Softee franchisees elsewhere in the city voted unanimously to temporarily suspend sales but around 10 of the approximately 80 who work in Brooklyn have refused to put their operations on ice, according to The Associated Press.

One vendor parked near Canarsie Pier on Saturday afternoon drew four customers in his first hour of business.

The snackers included Jacob Bridges, 5, who pulled down a face mask to enjoy a SpongeBob SquarePants frozen treat.

“It’s a nice day; it shouldn’t stop us from enjoying our lives and enjoying our kids,” said Jacob’s dad, Jared Bridges.

Jared noted that the vendor was wearing a mask and gloves, and “wasn’t in close contact for very long.”

“My son obviously has his mask and we hand sanitize, so I’m not worried,” he added.

Customer Adam Quiles hopped off his bike to buy a bottle of water.

“I don’t know if I would call this essential,” he said. “But everybody has to make a buck, I guess.”

Vendor Mutlu Gani, who’s been parking his truck near the Canarsie Pier for the past 17 years, lamented that the pandemic was destroying his livelihood.

Gani said he normally rang up $200-$300 in sales on a sunny day in April, but was now making as little as $30 a shift, in part because the ongoing closure of city schools has eliminated the weekday afternoon rush of hungry students.

“This year, I don’t know how I’m going to pay rent, support my family,” he told the news service. “I don’t know.”

Another vendor on Saturday repeatedly played the Mister Softee theme song while parked in central Brooklyn, but didn’t appear to generate much business.

A pop-up message on the Mister Softee website says the company “has advised our franchise locations to temporarily cease operations,” adding, “We look forward to returning smiles to our customer’s faces once the trucks are back on the streets.”

Mister Softee Vice President Mike Conway said that the Runnemede, New Jersey-based company tried to lock down the 350 trucks that operate in New York City before realizing it couldn’t because the state has deemed food trucks essential businesses.

“We can say, ‘Don’t go out,’ but we don’t have the keys to every single truck,” he said.

Conway said Mister Softee was concerned that having ice cream trucks on the road amid the coronavirus crisis could backfire on the drivers and cause the company to “lose their customers.”

“That’s our thing right now. It’s a short-term gain,” he said.

“You might make some money in these couple weeks, but there’s a long-term loss to your customers looking at you like, ‘What are you doing out here?’”

Conway also said Mister Softee was advising franchisees on various financial-aid options to help keep them afloat.

“I think every business has to ask themselves right now, you know, ‘Are we essential?’” he said.

“If we were maybe selling lunch and dinner and things like that, that’s going to help sustain people. But I think getting ice cream is not going to be essential at this time.”
