I was looking at The Baconing on the Mac App Store (MAS) and found that it is also available on Steam. Besides the price difference is there any other reason I would want the MAS version over the Steam version?

For a SteamWorks title like The Baconing, if you buy it on Steam, you get both the Windows and Mac versions.
The catch is that Steam requires you to have an Internet connection, at least periodically, to verify that you own the game.
As far as I'm aware, those are the only differences.
