Yes, expired yeast is good for compost. It still has living micro-organisms that can contribute to the breakdown of carbon- and nitrogen-rich recyclables into dark-colored, fresh-smelling, nutrient-rich humus. It also may support the proliferation of beneficial bacteria already in the compost container, heap, pile or pit.

Is it ok to eat expired yeast?
If you are using the yeast in bread, then if it is expired it may be dead and your bread will not rise. You could make a sponge of the yeast by mixing it with warm (not hot) water and wheat flour; if the sponge becomes foamy, your yeast is fine to use. If you are eating it as a dietary supplement it depends on the form. If it is in a dry form, it probably is okay if it is slightly expired. If it is in a wet form, if the yeast is dead then harmful organisms may replace it and it should probably be discarded.
