Fly a Boeing? Why is right rudder trim needed in cruise?

Something that I've wondered often but never received a definitive explanation to. Why in the cruise with balanced thrust and fuel do Boeings need a touch of right rudder trim? My experience is on the B757 and B777 but all the variants of the two types are the same. Answers on a post card...
