I believe the answer is:

menu

'list' is the definition.
(list of dishes)

'consumer items for males of the upper class' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'males' could be 'men' (man is a kind of male) and 'men' is present in the answer.
'upper class' could be 'u' (as in U- and non-U speech) and 'u' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for menu that I've seen before include "Restaurant fare" , "List of dishes on offer" , "Restaurant's list" , "Choice of dishes" , "List of items to choose from as in restaurant" .)
