Economists refer to private goods as
Explanation
A private good is rivalrous and excludable. If you buy a bag of rice, nobody else can eat the same rice (rivalrous). Sellers can also stop non-payers from getting it (excludable).
Street lights are the opposite. They are non-rival and non-excludable.
