Sean 'Diddy' Combs' strange cheeseburger topping has been revealed during the rapper's ongoing sex trafficking trial.

The high-profile trial of Sean 'Diddy' Combs officially kicked off on Monday (May 12) after the rapper was arrested at a hotel in New York last September.

The 55-year-old stands accused of racketeering and sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, among other charges, all of which he denies.

So far, the court has heard from Combs' former girlfriend, Cassandra 'Cassie' Ventura, who made a slew of allegations against Combs, whom she dated for more than a decade.

Cassie alleged Combs forced her to participate in so-called 'freak-off' sex parties, which involved her having sex with a male escort while he watched on, as well as several instances of physical violence.

Meanwhile, this week, some of Combs' former assistants took to the stand.

The New York Post reports how ex-employee George Kaplan spoke about the use of Combs' 'Black AMEX card' referring to the exclusive American Express Centurion Card.

Kaplan explained to the court and to defense attorney Marc Agnifilo that staff would use the card to buy things for Combs.

“Applesauce?” asked Agnifilo, to which Kaplan said: “Mr. Combs loves applesauce and eats it on the side or on top of a lot of things."

“Cheeseburgers?” Agnifilo asked.

“Cheeseburgers being one of them,” Kaplan added.

Agnifilo then asked Kaplan if it was possible Combs would be able to keep track of the payments on the card.

“His world was the size of the Earth,” Kaplan said. “He was doing business all over the world … Frankly, to think that he knew where some of these things were coming from is unrealistic.”

It wasn't the first time the applesauce had come up, with David James - another former assistant - discussing how Combs would travel to the UK with apple sauce and American ketchup.

“Were you aware he put applesauce on his cheeseburgers?” Agnifilo asked.

“I was not aware, but I knew he liked applesauce,” James responded.

Elsewhere in the trial, photographs of Combs' hotel room on the night of his arrest have been released to the public.

The images taken by law enforcement from his room in the Park Hyatt Hotel in Midtown Manhattan were also shown to jurors.

Among the items photographed include bottles of baby oil, suspected drugs and mood lighting, reports Daily Mail.

There were also pill bottles containing clonazepam, which is used for anxiety and seizures, two small bags of pink powder, one of which tested positive for ketamine and the other a mixture of MDMA and ketamine, and wads of around $9,000 in cash.
