Can I get 2 of this or these on menu?

Hi, I wanna ask about shopping phrase.

When I go to McDonald,and if I want to buy 2 of Big Mac meals, point the menu of Big Mac & Can I say:

"Can I get 2 of this?"

or Do I have to say:

"Can I get 2 of these?"

Which one is correct?

Could anyone suggest better one?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello Ajikare Ajikano, This, these, those, and that are determiners that can really confuse ESL students. If you type "this that those" in the forum search box (upper left) you will be directed to some very useful threads on the subject. Further, the site below may also help.

'two of this' and 'two of that' are not English. It's 'two of these' or 'two of those'.
