Mondo shtuff from around the internet, all about MANICOTTI!
My botty best at summarizing from Wikipedia: manicotti, literally, “little sleeve,” is an Italian American kind of pasta . they are very large pasta tubes, usually ridged, intended to be stuffed and baked . similar to the italian can traditional manicotti recipe uses a crêpe instead of pasta tubes to contain the filling . filling is covered in sauce and baked .
