I don’t believe cooking can do anything to inactivate prions, if this is like Mad Cow Disease.

Man, this is like way to weird..

"A prion is a type of protein that can trigger normal proteins in the brain to fold abnormally. Prion diseases can affect both humans and animals and are sometimes spread to humans by infected meat products. The most common form of prion disease that affects humans is Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)."

Pretty much nothing can destroy the prions. Maybe burning.
