Lux Sensor Recommendation

Hello guys. What would be your most recommended sensor to measure lux(unit of light intensity)? And is it possible for me to put an interface in Arduino somehow? Like a way to select a specific subject. For example: I would select an item then the Arduino would indicate if the lux is suitable for the specific item

Adafruit has a light sensor ready for Arduino: Arduino Code | TSL2561 Luminosity Sensor | Adafruit Learning System

This sensor sends data over a "bus"... and you will need to configure the code... which sounds involved, but if you follow their instruction, you will have data soon after connection and code upload.
