old DME in starter?

[glorifiedbusdriver]

Hey guys, I am getting back into brewing after a 3-4 year hiatus and have a question about starters. I have some old dry malt extract that hasn't been opened in it's original packaging from 3-4 years ago and I want to use that for my yeast starter. Is this ok since it's just the starter? BTW I live in a small town without a home brew store so I would have to wait for it to come in the mail or just forgo the starter. Thanks!

Should be good to use still. What yeast do you plan on using?

Wyeast American Ale II in a black IPA with an OG of 1.080. Thanks for the reply.
