Hint: the answer to this question has nothing to do with food.

Is nobody interested in this? Well, here's another hint, anyway:
I don't want to monopolize or hijack this thread with a definition of how to solve this particular example of hijinks. I know; reading this, some of you are sighing and some laughing, but the worst is over, so you can return to your previous states of calmness or even somnolence while I cease my prideful ways and defer this stupid conversation to a canopy in Afghanistan.

You have me stumped, even more so after this last hint.
Think a bit, would it be that they are spelt the same in the singular and plural form?

No, but you're on the right track in that you're thinking about the spelling of the words instead of the meaning of the words.

No takers yet, eh?
Hint: The fact that the middle one is "Egyptian" rather than "Egypt" is significant.

That could be, but not what I am looking for. The linking thing is not limited to just these three.

To furthe my hint, there is a complimentary triad that is not expressed.
Also New York City could also be added to the triad

That is it. Also I would say that these cities are more well-known than their state capital.

Hmm...I wonder how many of the 50 states' capitals are their largest cities. I'm guessing less than half. Maybe I'll work it out and post the answer soon...
In any case, the new Triad is:
Peru
Mexico
Denver

Right idea, wrong state - Maine has only two of the three.

I know New York state has at least two of those, so I'll guess NY.
